The system has been introduced to the US market on the 1 Series and the 3 Series from September of 2008 production. The 7 Series (F01/F02) will soon follow. The CIC replaces the Car Communication Computer (CCC) and will be offered as part of the navigation system option. iDrive system with CIC on an E90 vehicle 4 Car Information Computer New Features The Car Information Computer (CIC) continues the path laid out by the earlier CCC system and takes it to the next level of development. The main noticeable feature of this Drive system is the newly designed controller that is now equipped with seven direct access buttons. These buttons provide shortcuts to the menus in the redesigned layout of the user interface. Compared to the CCC system, the number of CD/DVD drives in the CIC has been reduced to one optical drive. The CIC overall screen dimensions have remained the same. However, the number of pixels have doubled from 640x240 (CCC) to 1280x480. This provides improved visual quality by generating a sharper graphic display. The navigation system display has been enhanced with the following functions: • Full screen mode • Night view • 3D models in the perspective map view The use of an integrated HDD (hard disk drive) now allows navigation map data to be saved on the CIC hard disk. Previously, this map data had to be loaded from a navigation DVD for each destination entry. Maps can also be displayed much faster due to the increased processing power of the CIC. The hard disk drive in the CIC also makes it possible to compile and store a personalized music collection. An 8GB section of the total 80GB hard disk is dedicated to store music files. These files can be transferred from audio CDs, MP3 players or USB sticks. Along with the music data files, the music track database (Gracenote®) is also stored to be used for the music search function. An address database has been included in the "Contacts" menu, which can also be accessed from the Telephone and Navigation menus. This feature offers a single “location” for accessing contact information. The information contained is more comprehensive than before. Many external receiver hardware devices such as IBOC and GPS are integrated in the CIC. This adds flexibility and expands the system’s functions. 5 Car Information Computer The voice recognition system has been further developed to now enable even simpler and more fluid voice command inputs. The communication service BMW Assist has been adapted to the new layout of the user interface and expanded with additional services. Additional services available in BMW Assist effective September of 2008: • My info • BMW Search with Google Map database access 6 Car Information Computer WMA File A Windows Media Audio file (WMA) is an audio data compression technology. With WMA technology, audio signals that are deemed to be imperceptible to the hum an ear (heating limit) are deleted. Compared to MP3 at low data transmission rates of 128 kbit/s, this technology offers a rich and detailed sound guality. Despite its very compact size (1 MB per song minute), a WMA file of 128 kbit/s is comparable in terms of sound quality, to an MP3 file of approximate 160 kbit/s. This compression technology was developed by Microsoft® and because of its DRM (Digital Rights Management) capabilities, it is the preferred platform for the majority of the online music industry. Hard Disk Drive (HDD) The HDD is a ferromagnetic storage medium, which uses a write/read head to write binary data on to the surface of a rotating disk. This device is comparable to the hard drive on a home computer or laptop. Music Track Database (Gracenote®) This is a music track identification technology created by the company Gracenote®. It makes available the data associated with the music tracks (metadata). Gracenote® is the industry standard in the field of music identification technology that provides associated content. The metadata contains the following information: • Artist • Track title • Album • Release year • Genre classification Note: These metadata are managed and distributed by Gracenote® (www.gracenote.com/music). Non-commercial users have free access. ID3-Tag The ID3-Tag is the identification byte of an MP3 file. A format for additional information (metadata) that can be contained in reserved parts of the storage space of an MP3 file. This metadata is used exclusively for displaying track title, artist, genre etc., in the display of MP3 players or vehicles. 7 Car Information Computer System Overview Block Diagram of CIC System Index Explanation Index Explanation 1 Central information display (CID 4 Application software 2 Car Information Computer (CIC) 5 Hardware 3 User interface (BO) 8 Car Information Computer Bus overview E9x and E8x (not including E83, E85, E86) model series, CIC Index Explanation Index Explanation ACSM Advanced crash and safety management FS MOST direct access CAS Car access system JB Junction box CDC CD changer SDARS Satellite radio tuner CID Central information display TCU Telematics Control Unit CIC Car Information Computer TOP- HiFI Top-HiFi amplifier CON Controller SBX- High USB interface box High 9 Car Information Computer CIC System circuit diagram, in E9x and E8x model series (not including E83, E85, E86) © 10 Car Information Computer Index Explanation Index Explanation 1 Instrument cluster 10 AF output for audio jack (standard equipment) if no USB Audio interface is installed 2 Dynamic stability control 11 Antenna diversity module with antenna amplifier 3 Junction box 12 MOST distributor in rear area 4 Central information display 13 OBD interface (including Ethernet connection to CIC) 5 Car Information Computer 14 AF signals to speakers 6 USB Import/Export jack, glove compartment 15 MOST direct access 7 Future antenna expansion 16 Footwell module 8 Microphone for hands-free facility 17 Steering column switch cluster 9 Controller 11 Car Information Computer System Components Car Information Computer Front View of the CIC The design principle of the CIC is similar to a personal computer, the Car Information Computer contains a processor, RAM (memory) modules and other peripheral components. The following CIC applications are stored on the integrated hard disk drive: • Music collection • Music track database (Gracenote®) • Navigation software (application) • Navigation (map material) • iSpeech (voice recognition system) • Contacts (database with address data) • System operating software 12 Car Information Computer The CIC is the central control unit for the listed applications. It is linked to the central information display (CID) for the purpose of transmitting and displaying information. The Car Information Computer is also connected to the controller. The controller serves as a selection and input device for the user interface. The CIC is based on a modular design. The most important systems of the communica¬ tion network are integrated in the CIC in the form of modules. The CIC combines the following control units in one enclosure: • Navigation computer, HIP module and yaw rate sensor • Tuner (FM) • Tuner (AM) • Tuner (FM-TMC) • IBOC decoder • Audio system controller, and music search database • MOST-CAN gateway • Interface to control display (LVDS) The upper half of the CIC consists of the optical drive player where CDs and DVDs of digital audio media can be played. The player also has ability to playback video DVDs on the front CID. The video signal is only displayed when the vehicle is stationary with the Parking Brake on. For the navigation system, the optical drive can be used for updating the map material stored on the hard disk. The processors for the main board and application board are located in the lower half of the CIC. This section also contains the main memory, the individual modules as well as the hard disk drive. The CIC together with the controller and CID, make up the Drive system. 13 Car Information Computer Advantages of the Car Information Computer Combining several modules in one enclosure provides the following advantages: • The combination of several systems enhances the functionality • Outstanding software expansion options through suitable software interfaces • Fewer plug connections increases reliability • Less overall package space required for control units Front View of the CIC on the E9x and E8x (not including E83, E85, E86) Index Explanation Index Explanation 1 Rotary/push button for (ON/OFF) and controlling the volume of audio system 5 Station/track "forward-back" search button 2 Eject button for DVD/CD player 6 MODE button (Radio, CD/DVD 3 Favorite buttons 1 -6 7 FM/AM button selects between the two frequency bands 4 Slot for DVD/CD player 14 Car Information Computer Rearview of Car Information Computer Index Explanation Index Explanation 1 LVDS signal for CID Connector color code: violet 7 16-pin connector (K-CAN, audio output AF; power supply, Rad-on signal) 2 USB connection for glove compartment connector color code: beige 8 GPS antenna signal Connector color code: blue 3 Ethernet connection Future expansions connector color code: pastel orange 9 (Not for US) 4 MOST connector 10 (Not for US) 5 12-pin connector; right-hand chamber (Ethernet, TEL_AF, AUXJn) 11 AM/FM tuner signal Connector color code: black 6 12-pin connector; left-hand chamber (video input signals - CSCC) 15 Car Information Computer The transmission of picture data from the CCC to the CID was performed by means of an 8-wire LVDS line. With the introduction of the Car Information Computer, the video signal is now transmitted through a 2-wire LVDS line. The change in picture data transmission in the vehicle reflect the changes made in PC technology. While the printer was formerly connected to the PC via a parallel cable, data transmission now takes place using serial USB technology. In the following graphics, 8-wire LVDS technology is compared to the new 2-wire LVDS technology: 8-wire LVDS Transmission of video signals via 8-wire LVDS technology with CCC and CID. (LVDS+ and LVDS- for each of the four signal lines and an additional synchronization line) 2-wire LVDS Transmission of video signals via |h- / . 2-wire LVDS technology with CIC UjM j _ ,. .V. -J _ A and CID. Signal transmission through this 2-wire LVDS line offers four distinct advantages: • Higher data transfer rate • Simplified wiring • Runtime differences between the individual lines are avoided • Serial 2-wire LVDS data transmission is now much more cost-effective than 8-wire LVDS technology The main advantage of using serial 2-wire LVDS is the resulting high picture resolution. CID 16 Car Information Computer A 4-core, shielded cable is used for the 2-wire LVDS technology. The cable consists of the four cores, LVDS+, LVDS-, 2x ground and shielding. For Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) reasons, the unused wire is also connected to ground. In the illustration to the right, the advantages of both cores connected to ground are shown with the aid of field lines. The capacitive interference of the signals is deflected to ground. The wires connected to ground form a defined potential and cannot act as antennas. This ensures that additional interference is avoided. Graphical Illustration of EMC protection using 2-wire LVDS technology Index Explanation 1 Two signal-carrying cores, two cores connected to ground 17 Car Information Computer Modular Design of CIC Components Individual replaceable components of the Car Information Computer Index Explanation Index Explanation 1 Replaceable device CIC 3 Front panel 2 DVD/CD player including CIC housing cover 4 Hard disk drive The components listed above are defined as separate or modular. These components are attached to the main/complete head unit. Of these components, only the faceplate remains a serviceable and replaceable compo¬ nent. Failure of any other internal component will necessitate the replacement of the entire CIC unit once proper authorization has been obtained through PuMA. The functions of the individual components are briefly described in the following pages. The installation and removal instructions for the individual components and the complete CIC control unit are available in TIS (Technical Information System) or the workshop system ISTA. 18 Car Information Computer It is essential to follow ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) guidelines when replacing individual components in order to avoid damage to internal components of the CIC. These require¬ ments also apply when storing or sending back components. Special packaging (ESD bags, ESD boxes with film or foam material cladding) is available for this purpose and should be used instead of conventional packaging materials. The following picture illustrates the effects of electrostatic discharge (ESD) on electronic components. Index Explanation 1 ESD symbol (protection measures necessary) 2 ESD damage to a conductor (magnified 5000 times) Effects of ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) on electronic components 19 Car Information Computer Working on Electronic Components The following requirements must be observed when working on electronic components on the Car Information Computer. • The work must be performed on a conductive and grounded workbench (special tool 12 7 192 is used for this purpose). • The grounding cable must be connected to a secure grounding point (water pipe, heating pipe, electric socket ground). • The person carrying out the work must first put on the grounding cuff in order to ground himself before removing the components from the packaging. • The electronic components are placed on the anti-static mat which is also connected to a grounding cable.

The optical drive is used for playing audio and video media. This drive makes it possible to play the following media file formats: • Audio CDs (CD Digital Audio) • Audio CD-ROM with MP3, WMA or AAC files • DVD Audio (only stereo track if contained on the data medium) • Audio DVD-ROM with MP3, WMA or AAC files • Video DVD Playing video on the (front) CID display is only possible when the vehicle is stationary and in the “Park” position. When the vehicle is moving or the Parking Brake is not on, only the audio track of the video will be played. Although the CD/DVD drive is no longer used for the navigation system (as in CCC), it may be used to update navigation map data from a navigation DVD. Key components of DVD player used in the CIC system Index Explanation 1 DVD player 2 Front panel connection 3 Ribbon cable connection, DVD player to CIC head unit 21 Car Information Computer Hard Disk Drive With the development CIC, a hard disk for storing applications (programs) and data is used in a head unit of a BMW vehicle for the first time. A 2.5" hard disk drive with a storage a capacity of 80 GB is installed. This makes it possible to display complex graphics like 3D models in the perspective view of the navigation system. This system provides the option of converting, storing and playing music tracks. The hard disk makes it possible to maintain a music collection with a music track database (Gracenote®). The HDD (hard disk drive) also provides a data storage option for the three languages of the voice recognition system. 22 Car Information Computer The hard disk drive is a replaceable component of the CIC. Proper repair instructions and ESD guidelines must be followed when replacing the unit. The Music collection backup should only be performed by the customer and not the service technician. For more information refer to “Music Collection Backup” in the Principles of Operation section of this training material. The following illustrations show the hard disk location and the individual partitions.

Failure of any other internal component will necessitate the replacement of the entire CIC unit once proper authorization has been obtained through PuMA. 24 Car Information Computer Fixed Components Some of the components that were modular in the Car Communication Computer are now integrated into the CIC as solid state components. In the event of defects to some of the components, it may be necessary to replace the entire head unit after submitting a PuMA case. Bottom open view of the CIC components Index Explanation Index Explanation 1 FM/AM aerial connection 3 FM/AM double tuner module 2 FM - TMC module 4 IBOC decoder 25 Car Information Computer Fan Unlike with CCC, it is not possible to replace the fan of the Car Information Computer separately as part of a service procedure. The fan provides cooling for the entire hardware assembly, including the hard disk drive and the gateway processor (located directly below it). The exhaust air cools the cooling fins of the HiFi output stage in the power board as it is routed through a cooling channel out of the unit. CIC system’s Cooling Fan location Gateway Processor The gateway processor converts all relevant data of the K-CAN system into MOST-bus telegrams and vice versa. The electronic module is soldered into the board directly under the hard disk drive and cannot be replaced separately. The gateway processor has its own control unit address in the BMW diagnosis system. 26 Car Information Computer CIC system’s Gateway Processor location GPS Receiver Module The GPS receiver module is also known as the HIP module (Host Independence Positioning). Location and route of the vehicle are calculated in the navigation system with the data from the GPS receiver module. This module was already integrated in the head unit with the CCC system. It has the task of converting the signals received from the GPS antenna together with the data from the DSC control unit and yaw rate sensor. The following information is calculated in the GPS receiver module: • Longitude • Latitude • Altitude above sea level • Direction (bearing) • Speed This information is known as Almanac data and it is transferred to the navigation system for further processing. The Almanac data must be permanently stored for future refer¬ ence. One of the reasons for this is that it takes a long time for data to be received again from satellites after switching to terminal 15 from terminal status ignition "OFF". This Almanac data ensures the position of the vehicle is recognized immediately after starting the vehicle. Therefore the navigation system can also be used immediately. 27 Car Information Computer Compared to the GPS receiver module of the Car Communication Computer the GPS receiver module in the CIC has been greatly reduced in size while maintaining the same functionality. The graphic shows the size of the GPS receiver module compared to the main connection plug of the head unit. CIC system’s GPS receiver size compared to the Main Connector Index Explanation 1 GPS receiver module 2 CIC main connection plug Yaw Rate Sensor The Car Information Computer features a yaw rate sensor. It supplies the data relating to changes in driving direction for the navigation system. This data is required for the purpose of determining the exact position as satellite signals cannot be received everywhere (tunnels, underground parking lot etc.). The yaw rate sensor is a separate module soldered on the main board. It has been greatly reduced in size compared to the yaw rate sensor in the Car Communication Computer. Unlike with CCC, it is no longer possible to replace Location of the yaw rate sensor the yaw rate sensor separately from the entire unit. soldered to the CIC main board 28 Car Information Computer Analog Tuner Modules The tuner modules in the Car Information Computer have enhanced functions compared to the tuners used in the CCC system. The FM/AM and the traffic information (RTTI) range have been expanded. FM and AM Station List A double tuner module (see item 1) is installed in the CIC for the FM/AM range. While one tuner in the network receives the required station and outputs the music signal, the other tuner works in the background searching the station landscape for additional signals and shows them on the display. ("All stations" menu item). This function in the FM range is already known from the CCC and is now available in the AM range. The third module in the tuner network enables expansion of the FM-TMC (Traffic Message Channel) functions. The FM/AM double tuner module and the FM-TMC module combine to form the triple tuner.

With the intro¬ duction of the CIO, the control unit of the IBOC system has been integrated in the head unit as the IBOC decoder. The IBOC system was developed by the company Ibiquity and, with the aid of a decoder, enables the reception of HD (High Definition) radio through the FM/AM double tuner. This system simultaneously broadcasts an analog and digital signal. A special oscilloscope (spectrum analyzer) would show the digital components at both sides of the analog wave of the FM frequency (step shape). The IBOC system receives the signals with the aid of the FM double tuner module. These signals are then routed to the IBOC decoder which adds the digital data stream to the audible music signals.

The decoder delays digital reception for several seconds until it is synchronous again with the analog signal previously heard. SPS offers additional radio stations that are only broadcast in digital form. Using the multi¬ cast method, it is possible to accommodate up to seven digital stations in the submenu of the SPS main station. Normally, however, a maximum of 3 sub-menu are offered in the SPS. v* FM AM Presets VYeaJ M \ Tone WPLJ HDl ,f7wPUHDl WPU HD2 WPLJ HD3 3:07 am ^^IWPLJ HDl Sub-menu of the IBOC main station The system automatically switches over to analog FM reception if the digital signal is no longer available. HD radio is also available in the AM frequency range. In this case, the digital signals are transmitted on directly adjacent frequencies of the analog station. Multicast is not sup¬ ported on AM. The content of the digitally broadcast station is the same as that of the analog station. HD radio plays AM radio stations in near-FM quality and FM radio stations in near-CD quality. 31 Car Information Computer CIC Application Board with Processors The application board accommodates the main processor (CPU = Central Processing Unit) and the main memory modules (RAM = Random Access Memory) for the CIC. These components are soldered into the board and cannot be replaced. Index Explanation 1 CPU - Central processing unit 2 Main memory (RAM) of the CIC CPU) and Main Memory Location Power Board The power board is located beneath the CIC heat sink and on the left next to the CIC main connector. It contains both the audio output stages for the speakers of the stereo system as well as the power supply unit for the CIC. The heat sinks and CIC fan cool the system by dissipating the heat from the power supply unit and amplifier. The unit interfaces with the vehicle’s electrical system (power supply, MOST link, etc.) through the main connector.

The diagonal measurement for the CID on the 1 Series and 3 Series remains the same as on the CCC equipped vehicle at 8.8 inches. The number of pixels of the CID has doubled from 640x240 in CCC to 1280x480 pixels in CIC. This improves picture quality by enhancing the display resolution. In addition to the display enhancements the graphic layout of the CIC user interface has also been totally redesigned. menu 12: ill CD/Multi media Radio Telephone Navigation Contacts BMW Services Vehicle information Settings Graphic User Interface on CID with a CIC equipped vehicle No signal "--sgsaMraiyjaasin.'

The most noticeable feature of the new CIC controller is the seven direct access buttons. It is now possible to access the following menus directly: • Main menu • CD/Multimedia • Radio • Navigation • Telephone The following menus can still only be selected from the main menu, with no direct access: • Contacts • BMW Services • Vehicle information • Settings The "Back" button is pressed to go back to the last display view. Up to 30 "back" steps are possible with this button. The “Option” button makes it possible to make fine adjustments or carry out special functions in the previously selected sub-menu. The direct access buttons replace the CCC "long push" function. Note: With the “Long Push” function is was possible to change from a sub-menu directly to another sub-menu in the CCC by pushing the controller in the corresponding direction for at least two seconds. 34 Car Information Computer The respective sub-menus are now selected directly by pressing the CD/multimedia, radio, navigation or telephone buttons twice.

The sub-menus in the main menu now have been arranged in lists. One of the listed sub-menus can now be marked with the "turn" function in the start win¬ dow menu. The selected sub-menu is accessed with the subsequent "press" function. Several sub-menus can now also be selected by means of the direct access buttons on the controller. The "push" function is now used to further navigate in the selected sub-menu. The windows of the selected sub-menu are arranged horizontally one above the other. The following table shows a comparison between the previous menu items of the CCC and the menu items structure of the CIC. 35 Car Information Computer CCC main menu CIC main menu \ r 1 ti ll! i Phonebook Navigation => Address Book Contacts (imported/self-entered contacts) Communication BMW Services Assist services BMW Services Navigation Navigation Navigation, onboard information, BC Vehicle information, onboard computer Air conditioning (climate control) Settings (limited) Entertainment CD/Multimedia CD, DVD, CDC CD/DVD Radio (FM, AM, IBOC) Radio (FM, AM, IBOC) Music collection Settings (5 th menu) Settings Audio Sound Display screen Central screen Time/Date Time/Date Language Language/Units Vehicle/Tires Vehicle information/Vehicle status Service Vehicle information/Vehicle status 36 Car Information Computer CD/Multimedia Overview The CD/DVD, external devices and sound sub-menus are listed under CD/Multimedia in a similar configuration to the Drive "Entertainment" menu of the CCC. This Product Information mainly deals with the Music collection sub-menu. An innovative feature of this system is that video DVD can be played in the front CID. This function is only available with the vehicle stationary (Parking Brake on) and is enabled in the corresponding vehicle order. It provides the control option with which the video function is activated. Music Collection For the first time in a BMW vehicle, a music collection can be saved on an internal hard disk drive and accessed through its own sub-menu. The music collection feature is found under the CD/Multimedia menu of the CIC. A music search function has been implemented, which searches for information (metadata) on the individual music tracks (artist, album, etc.). A hard drive-based track database (Gracenote®) provides further information to the music track (metadata). Note: Metadata storage is a separate function to the conversion process from Digital Audio CD to a WMA file format which allows the system to per¬ form a music search.

This device makes it possible to store a large selection of music data in the vehicle, while allowing the option to retrieve it when necessary. Up to 12 GB of the total 80 GB hard drive is set aside for the music collection. The following three options can be used to store music data on the hard disk: • Rip function from Compact Disc Audio format • Copying data via the CD/DVD drive • Copying data from the USB Index Explanation Index Explanation 1 Hard disk (HDD) 3 DVD/CD ROM with compressed audio data (WMA, CDA, MP3, AAC) 2 Commercially available audio CDs (Compact Disk Digital Audio CDA) 4 USB stick 38 Car Information Computer Rip Function This function rips commercially available audio CDs (marked with the Compact Disk Digital Audio logo) and converts them to compressed music files. COMPACT DIGITAL AUDIO This function can be performed when the vehicle is stationary or while driving. The music on the CD can also be played back during the conversion and storage process of the rip function. The music data is converted at a speed between 3 and 12 times the playback speed. Following the conversion the music data is stored on the hard disk in WMA file format. The data is then displayed in the form of file folders in the music collection menu. These folders are identified with the corresponding title and with a round CD icon. After the conversion process the files will be displayed and can now be selected individually by using the music search function.

The USB interface powers the USB stick with maximum 500 mA. The file system (FAT 16, FAT 32 or NTFS) is shown under properties of the USB stick in the Windows Explorer. The protocol which is used is shown by clicking the hardware icon in the windows information area. When using a USB stick device with several partitions, the music data files must be located in the first partition in order to be recognized and processed. Note: Simultaneously connecting a device to the USB import/export jack and a second interface to the (12 V socket, USB audio auxiliary interface) can cause damage to both the external devices and the connected control units. 42 Car Information Computer File System The folders of the converted or copied music files can subsequently be renamed in the Options menu. For this purpose, the corresponding album entry must be marked in the music collection and then the “Options” menu selected. It is important to note the following when coping music files with Digital Rights Management (DRM) protection to the music collection: • AAC music data in the M4P format (P = Protected) cannot be copied to the hard disk. • Only music data in WMA format with copy protection can be copied. This data will be shown in the music collection and in the music search. However, these protected tracks cannot be played. The track will be “skipped” or ignored and a different non-protected music track will be played. The reason for this is that it is not possible to provide purchaser authentication in the CIO because a link to the online provider cannot be established. It is suggested that the customer import the audio files using a self recorded Digital Audio CD. All music download portals allow the creation of a Digital Audio CD for the downloaded music track. However, the number of copies that can be created is limited by licensing legislation. 43 Car Information Computer Data Saving (Backup) The customer has the option of saving his/her complete music collection under the "Options" sub-menu. This is achieved by copying it back to a USB stick installed in the glove box port. It is necessary to ensure that the USB stick has sufficient storage capacity. A maximum storage capacity of 12 GB is required for saving the music collec¬ tion data. Gjf Import/export Import from USB device Music collection backup Store music on USB device Restore music from USB device Album data Store album data on USB Update album data from USB Import/export submenu screen shot showing how to back up music files The process is similar to the data saving procedure on a PC. This function makes it possible to import data when changing vehicles or when replacing a head unit or hard disk. Data saving will only be possible if the hard disk of the CIC has not been damaged and the interfaces to the CIC are still fully operational. Data back up should be done prior to programming the vehicle after replacing control units. Without data saving (backup), all of the music data could be lost. However, this can only be done by the customer prior to bringing the vehicle in for service. Detailed instruc¬ tions on how and where the data backup can be performed are provided in the Vehicle Owner's Manual. WARNING!!! For copyright reasons, the service personnel are not permitted to perform the data backup for the customer. The service personnel, can, however, instruct the customer on how to perform the backup procedure. 44 Car Information Computer Music Search The "Music search" sub-menu is provided in the music collection for the purpose of managing a large quantity of music files. The music search takes place in accordance with a special filtering process. The search can be started at any menu item in the music search. For example, if the menu item "Genre" is selected as the starting point, all albums of all artists together with all the tracks in this music direction will be made available for selection. In the next step, only the artist is selected and all his/her albums are displayed. The search is now filtered further with each step until at the end, only the required entry remains. The information for the music search is stored in the form of a metafile, similar to the ID3 tags of an MP3 file. An example of how these metafile or meta information could appear is shown below: Music search Search for: Example 1 Genre Rock 2 Artist Queen 3 Album Greatest Hits II 4 Track A Kind Of Magic ($- Music collection 1:19am*'S.t ^ 3% Music search Current playback o Top 50 50 CiC Music File ID RENAMED ID USB 2 ID V Continuum •* Autostore > wmmmm rwjs.

IBOC makes it possible to receive digital radio signals. The IBOC components are described in detail in the "System Components" section of this training material. SDARS The Satellite radio service is available with a subscription to Sirius satellite radio. An example of how a station list would look like in the CIC with channels that have not yet been subscribed to is shown in the illustration below.

The menu located at the top right, next to the speller, shows the last three place names entered, which can also be selected at any time. Navigation destinations can also be entered based on their ZIP code using the speller symbol 1 @+. After entering several letters, a preview map will be shown in the assistant window. This makes it easier to select the desired destination. This function is particularly useful for identifying place names that share the same name and/or appear several times in one town, city or country. The map shown in the assistance window is independent of the main map. Both the scale as perspective can be adjusted separately from each other. This setting is made under the Options menu. Compared to the CCC, entering the destination using the voice recognition system has been made considerably easier. Many new commands are now possible using the voice recognition system. 53 Car Information Computer Assistance Window with Different Zoom Factor Compared to the Main Window Interactive Map The interactive map is another option for entering destinations. In addition to horizontal and vertical navigation there is also the option of diagonal navigation. Since the CIC does not directly have a diagonal sliding option, the following solution was found. The auxiliary line for entering the destination can also be moved diagonally by pushing, pressing and turning the controller. Various diagonal graduations can now be selected to facilitate destination selection. A destination location appears in the crosshairs, it is shown highlighted and now it can be selected as the destination. Interactive Map View Note: The interactive map is an excellent tool for checking the controller func¬ tions. Since the controller can be moved in all directions, it is possible to detect if there are any defects in the controller or CIC head unit. 54 Car Information Computer Map Data The navigation Map material data is already pre-installed and enabled in all US vehicles. The maps data can be updated in two different ways: • Updating the BMW programming system In this case, the map data in the CIC is updated through the Ethernet connection in the diagnostic connector. The data is enabled by means of an enable code that needs to be downloaded and entered into the BMW programming system. • Using a complete DVD set The DVD is loaded directly into the head unit. The enable code can then be entered directly into the Drive system by the customer or service technician using the "speller”. The customer can still continue navigating with the old map material after loading the CD and starting the update procedure. A reset is triggered in the CIC immediately on completion of the update procedure and the customer continues to navigate with the new map material. The navigation destination, last destination and contact data are retained. The update can be interrupted at anytime and continued when ever the trip is resumed. Map Views Separate map views are possible in the main window and assistance window. The scale for each of the two maps can be selected individually. The map view can be selected in the icon bar on the left half of the screen. The following maps can be selected: • North-up • Perspective • Direction-up • Arrow view 55 Car Information Computer Full screen mode can be activated by pressing the "Scale" icon twice or via Options while in the Navigation menu. The assistance window can be activated under the "Options" menu. The various map views for the main window and further display options are available in this assistance window. The increased display resolution of the CIO display (1280 x 480) is particularly noticeable in full screen mode. Full Screen Mode Night View A night view for map presentation can be activated under Options - Map Options. This view uses colors that are easy on the eye in darker conditions. Night View of the Navigation Screen 56 Car Information Computer Points of Interest (POI) Addresses of navigation destinations as well as service stations, service areas, cinemas etc. can be selected via the "Special destinations" (Points of Interest) menu or by using the icon bar in the map view. The Points of Interest pictograms can be selected under the "Options" menu item. A POI search is possible while displaying the traveled route with the system in full screen mode. Route Planner Up to 30 stages can be entered when selecting a destination with the route planner. The trip or route planner is located in the Options menu of the navigation system. The entry "Trip with several stages" must be selected to activate this function. { Cfc?

An option for exporting all contact data back into the mobile phone is not provided. Entries made under "New contact" are retained even after uncoupling the telephone and can be edited at any time. Initially, these contacts are shown without a symbol. A navigation symbol is added at the end of the entry when an address has been added. 59 Car Information Computer BMW Assist With the introduction of the CIC several innovations have been implemented in the vehicle regarding the BMW Assist. The system has been changed to a push services, where an incoming message is shown in the display immediately. These push services make it possible to immediately view receipt of the following data packages: • BMW Search • Destination addresses from Google Maps • Destination addresses sent from the BMW Assist information service and their immediate display Under the Assist menu, the Service status option lists the services that are available, © BMW Assist \ TeleDia gnosis Customer Relations Service Request Data transfer -/ Service status / Service status sub-menu in the BMW Assist Menu p Available services Johnly Cel Services currently available for your vehicle: Service Request Customer Relations Automatic Service Request Roadside Assistance Available services availability 60 Car Information Computer Vehicle Information There are three sub-groups that can be selected in the "Vehicle info" menu: • Onboard computer • Trip computer • Vehicle status Onboard Computer The onboard computer takes the place of the trip computer previously known from the CCC.
