Functional requirements
For the system to be able to identify the driver
profile associated to a particular driver, the de-
tected vehicle key must be clearly allocated to
the driver.
This is the case when:
▷ The driver is only carrying his or her own
vehicle key.
▷ The driver unlocks the vehicle.
▷ The driver gets into the vehicle through the
driver's door.
Settings
The settings, for instance for the following sys-
tems and functions, are stored in the active
profile. The scope of storable settings depends
on country and equipment.
▷ Unlocking and locking.
▷ Lights.
▷ Climate control.
▷ Radio.
▷ Instrument cluster.
▷ Programmable memory buttons.
▷ Volumes, sound.
▷ Control Display.
▷ Navigation.
▷ PDC Park Distance Control.
▷ Rearview camera.
▷ Head-up Display.
▷ Driving Dynamics Control.
▷ Seat position, exterior mirror position,
steering wheel position where applicable.
Both the positions saved via the seat mem-
ory and the last position set are saved.
▷ Intelligent Safety.
Profile management
Selecting a driver profile
Regardless of the vehicle key in use, a different
driver profile may be activated. This allows you
to call up personal vehicle settings, even if you
did not unlock the vehicle with your own vehi-
cle key.
Via iDrive:
1. "My Vehicle"
2. "Driver profiles"
3. Select driver profile.
4. "OK"
▷ All settings stored in the selected driver
profile are automatically applied.
▷ The called-up driver profile is assigned to
the vehicle key being used at the time.
▷ If the driver profile is already assigned to a
different vehicle key, this driver profile will
be valid for both vehicle keys.
Using a guest profile
The guest profile is for individual settings that
are stored in none of the three personal driver
profiles.
Via iDrive:
1.
"My Vehicle"
2. "Driver profiles"
3. "Drive off (guest)"
4. "OK"
The guest profile cannot be renamed. It is not
assigned to the vehicle key currently in use.
Renaming a driver profile
A personal name can be assigned to the active
driver profile to avoid confusion between the
driver profiles.
