BMW 3: Data entry and data transfer into the vehicle
General information
Depending on the vehicle equipment, comfort and individual settings can be stored in the vehicle and modified or reset at any time.
For example, this includes:
- Settings for the seat and steering wheel positions.
- Suspension and climate control settings.
If necessary, data can be transferred to the entertainment and communication system of the vehicle, for instance via smartphone.
This includes the following depending on the respective equipment:
- Multimedia data such as music, films or photos for playback in an integrated multimedia system.
- Address book data for use in conjunction with an integrated hands-free system or an integrated navigation system.
- Entered navigation destinations.
- Data on the use of Internet services.
This data can be stored locally in the vehicle or is found on a device that has been connected to the vehicle, e.g., a smartphone, USB stick or MP3 player. If this data is stored in the vehicle, it can be deleted at any time.
This data is only transmitted to third parties upon personal request as part of the use of online services. The transmission depends on the selected settings for the use of the services.
Incorporation of mobile devices
Depending on the vehicle equipment, mobile devices connected to the vehicle, for instance smartphones, can be controlled via the vehicle control elements.
The sound and picture from the mobile device can be played back and displayed through the multimedia system. Certain information is transferred to the mobile device at the same time. Depending on the type of incorporation, this includes, for instance position data and other general vehicle information. This optimizes the way in which selected apps, for instance navigation or music playback, work.
There is no further interaction between the mobile device and the vehicle, such as active access to vehicle data.
How the data will be processed further is determined by the provider of the particular app being used. The extent of the possible settings depends on the respective app and the operating system of the mobile device.
