BMW 3: Climate Control

As in previous BMW hybrid vehicles, an electrically powered air conditioning compressor is used in the G20 PHEV. Because the A/C compressor has an electric motor, it is possible to operate the air conditioning independently of the combustion engine. Thus the customer can enjoy the cooling effect of the air conditioning even while driving in pure electric mode and while stopped.

The high-voltage battery unit is cooled by the vehicle's refrigerant's circuit.

The stationary climate control is also available in the G20 PHEV.

 Event Data Recorder EDR

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder EDR. The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle's systems performed. The EDR is designed t

 Setting brightness and contrast

Brightness and contrast can be adjusted with Surround View or Panorama View switched on. Via iDrive: 1. Move the Controller to the right, if needed. 2. "Camera image" 3. "Brightness" "Contrast" 4. Set the desired value. Functional limitations The system can be used only to a limited extent
