Introduction As with all other BMW models, the operating concept of the new BMW X3 is based on a clear opti¬ mized layout of the driving area. The number of switches has been reduced in order to simplify logi¬ cal operation. The display and operating elements are organized in a hierarchical arrangement corre¬ sponding to their function.

System Components 2.1. Instrument panel The central display unit with speed reading, speed sensor, fuel gauge, engine oil temperature, and in¬ dicator and warning lights is referred to as the instrument panel. The instrument panel receives information on the wiring harness in the form of analogue and digital electrical signals. These signals are processed and displayed in the instrument panel or passed on as information to other control units. The F25 instrument panel is the same as the instrument panel of the F07 and FI 0 and, as a control unit, is a bus component of the MOST bus and PT-CAN. It incorporates a 5.7" TFT display screen with a resolution of 640 x 160 pixels located just below the round instruments. The round instruments are always enclosed by a closed ring. Index Explanation 1 TFT display 2 Closed instrument rings 2.1.1. Brake Energy Regeneration display The brake energy regeneration display is standard on all F25 vehicle and is installed in the instrument cluster just below the tachometer. The energy recovery indicator is faded into the current consumption display in coasting (overrun) mode. The kinetic energy of the vehicle is converted into electrical energy in coasting (overrun) mode. The vehicle battery is partially recharged and the fuel consumption can be reduced. 2 F25 Displays, Indicators and Controls 2. System Components F25 Brake energy regeneration display 2.1.2. On-board computer The F25 is equipped as standard with an on-board computer. The on-board computer functions can be called up by briefly pressing the on-board computer button on the steering column switch. Pressing the on-board computer button again displays information in the following order: • Range • Average consumption • Average speed • Distance (with activated route guidance) • Arrival time (with activated route guidance) • Date • Time display In vehicles with CID the functions to be displayed can be selected via "Settings" -> "Info Display". 3 F25 Displays, Indicators and Controls 2.

Central information display Depending on the equipment installed, two different versions of the central information display CID are installed in the F25. As on all new BMW models with iDrive, the system is operated by means of the central operating ele¬ ment, the controller. The central information display is an integrated display and operating facility for the following func¬ tions: • Audio functions, such as radio, CD, MP3 for example • Telephone and data services • Navigation • On-board computer, journey computer • Vehicle information, Interactive Owner's Manual • Heating and air conditioning system • Vehicle functions, for example PDC and EDO • BMW Assist. 2.2.1. CID with 8.8" screen diagonal A CID with 8.8" screen diagonal is available as and option and installed in conjunction with the Naviga¬ tion system (SA 609). The display resolution is 1280 x 480 pixels. 4 F25 Displays, Indicators and Controls 2. System Components F25 CID with 8.8” screen diagonal 2.2.2. CID with 6.5" screen diagonal A CID with 6.5" screen diagonal is standard equipment and is installed in conjunction with the BMW Professional radio (SA 663). The resolution of this display is 800 x 480 pixels. F25 CID with 6.5" screen diagonal 2.3. Head-Up Display The very name ”Head-Up” describes the principle benefit of this system. The Head-Up Display HUD projects a virtual image into the driver's field of view. Important information, e.g. from the cruise control or navigation system when the arrow display is active, is reflected on the windscreen and is therefore permanently in the driver's field of view. The Head-Up Display is available as option (SA 610) in the F25 and contains various functions aimed at enhancing road safety and ride comfort. The following items are displayed : • Vehicle speed • Set speed regulation by the cruise control with braking function (DCC) • Information from the navigation system • Check Control messages. Having the displays in the driver's direct field of view increases safety, as the driver always focusses on the traffic conditions. 5 F25 Displays, Indicators and Controls 2. System Components Head-Up Display For more information on the Head-Up Display, refer to the information bulletin entitled "Head-Up Dis¬ play HUD" for the F01. As there is no FAS strip in the F25, the Head-Up Display is operated via the controller and the oper¬ ating menu. In the F25, the optional Head-Up Display can only be used in conjunction with a CID (SA 609, 663). 2.4. Steering wheel controls A switch block is integrated into the steering wheel on the left and right-hand side. The operating elements for the Cruise control with braking function (Dynamic Cruise Control DCC) are on the left-hand side of the steering wheel.
