Daytime running lamps*
The daytime running lamps light up in posi-
tion0, 1 or3. The light output is lower than with
the low-beam headlamps.
If so desired, the light switch can be left in posi-
tion3. The exterior lamps are automatically
switched off after the vehicle is parked.
If the light switch remains in position1, then the
parking lamps are lit after the ignition is
switched off.
Adaptive Head Light*
The concept
Adaptive Head Light is a variable headlamp
control system that enables dynamic illumina-
tion of the road surface. Depending on the
steering angle and other parameters, the light
from the headlamp follows the course of the
road.
Activating Adaptive Head Light
In switch position3, the Adaptive Head Light is
activated and Automatic headlamp control is
switched on.
In order not to blind oncoming traffic, the Adap-
tive Head Light is not active when driving in
reverse and only points toward the passenger
side when the vehicle is stationary.

Automatic recirculated air control/
recirculated air mode
You can respond to unpleasant
odors or pollutants in the immedi-
ate environment by temporarily
suspending the supply of outside air. The sys-
tem then recirculates the air currently within the
vehicle. In AUC mode, a sensor detects pollut-
ants in the outside air and controls the shut-off
automatically.
Press the button repeatedly to run through the
following control sequence:
>LEDs off: outside air flows into the vehicle
continuously.
>Left LED on, AUC mode: the system
detects pollutants in the outside air and
responds by blocking the supply of outside
air when required.
>Right LED on, recirculated-air mode: the
supply of outside air into the vehicle is con-
tinuously blocked.If condensation starts to form on the
inside window surfaces during operation
in the recirculated-air mode, you should switch
it off while also increasing air supply as
required. Make sure that air can flow to the
windshield, e.g. by pressing the AUTO button.
The recirculated-air mode should not be used
over a longer period of time, as the air quality
inside the vehicle deteriorates continuously.<
Automatic climate control, switching
on and off
The air volume, the heater, and the
air conditioner mode are all
switched off.
You can restart the automatic climate control by
pressing any of its buttons except the REST
button.
Temperature adjustment
You can turn to select the desired
temperatures for the driver's and
passenger sides. Your settings
appear on the status line of the
Control Display. The number
shown in the display provides a general indica-
tion of interior temperature.
The automatic climate control achieves this
temperature as quickly as possible at any time
of year, if necessary with the maximum cooling
or heating capacity, and then keeps it constant.
When switching between different tem-
perature settings in rapid succession, the
automatic climate control does not have suffi-
cient time to achieve the set temperature.<
Via iDrive
1.Open the start menu.
2.Open "Climate".
3.Turn the controller to select driver's side or
passenger side.
4.Turn the controller to select the field and

The parked car ventilation blows air into the
passenger compartment to reduce interior tem-
peratures.
You can set two different times for the system
to start. The system is operated via iDrive.
It remains switched on for 30 minutes.
Since the system uses a substantial amount of
electrical current, you should refrain from acti-
vating it twice in succession without allowing
the battery to be recharged in normal operation
between uses.
With a preselected switch-on time, the parked
car ventilation is switched on at an outside tem-
perature of 597/156 or greater. When oper-
ated manually, it is ready for use at any outside
temperature, but not during driving.
The air enters the passenger compartment
through the air vents for the upper body in the
dashboard, which can be adjusted for both
direction and airflow. These vents must be
open for the system to operate.

Practical interior accessories
Integrated universal remote
control*
The concept
The integrated universal remote control can
replace as many as three hand-held transmit-
ters for various remote-controlled accessories,
such as door openers and house alarm sys-
tems. The integrated universal remote control
registers and stores signals from the original
hand-held transmitters.
The signal of an original hand-held transmitter
can be programmed into one of the three mem-
ory buttons1. After this, the programmed
memory button1 will operate the system in
question. The LED2 flashes to confirm trans-
mission of the signal.
Should you sell your vehicle one day, be sure to
delete the stored programs beforehand for your
security, refer to page112.
To prevent possible damage or injury,
during programming or before each use
of the programmed device by the integrated
universal remote control, always inspect the
immediate area to make certain that no people,
animals or objects are within the swiveling and
movement range of the device. Also, comply
with the safety precautions of the original hand-
held transmitter.<
Checking compatibility
If you see this symbol on the packaging
or in the manual supplied with the orig-
inal hand-held transmitter, it is safe to
assume that it is compatible with the integrated
universal remote control.
If you have additional questions, please contact
your BMW center or call: 1-800-355-3515.

Fixed-code hand-held transmitters
1.Switch on the ignition, refer to page57.
2.When using for the first time: press both
outer buttons1 for approx. 20 seconds,
maintaining pressure until the LED2 starts
to flash. The three memory buttons1 are
cleared.
3.Hold the original hand-held transmitter at a
distance of approx. 2in/5cm to 8in/20cm
from the memory buttons1.
The required distance between the
hand-held transmitter and memory
buttons1 depends on the relevant system
of the original hand-held transmitter used.<
4.Simultaneously press the transmit button
on the original hand-held transmitter and
the desired memory button1 of the inte-
grated universal remote control. The LED2
flashes slowly at first. As soon as the LED2
flashes rapidly, release both buttons. If the
LED2 does not flash rapidly after approx.
15 seconds, alter the distance.
5.To program other original hand-held trans-
mitters, repeat steps 3 and 4.
The corresponding memory button1 is now
programmed with the signal of the original
hand-held transmitter.
You can operate the system when the engine is
running or when the ignition is switched on.
