July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Brief component description: Controller

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW X5, 2012 BMW X5, and 2011 BMW X5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

There are 7 fixed selector keys arranged around the new controller. These selector buttons now enable selection of half of all the sub-menus.

The following sub-menus can still be selected only from the main menu:

Item Explanation
1 Controller (CON)
2 Radio selector key
3 CD/multimedia selector key
4 Main menu selector key
5 Telephone selector key
6 Navigation selector key
7 "Options" selector key
8 "Back" selector key

When pressed, the "Back" button returns the user to the last screen mask. The "Option" button enables other settings in the last selected sub-menu.

The selector keys are used now instead of pushing the controller for a longer period in a certain direction.
