Notes
The visibility of the displays in the Head-Up Dis-
play is influenced by:
>
Sunglasses with certain polarization filters
>
Certain sitting positions
>
Objects on the cover of the Head-Up Dis-
play
>
Wet road surface and unfavorable lighting
conditions
If the image is distorted, please have the base
setting checked at a BMW center.
Specialized windshield
The windshield is a part of the system. The
shape of the windshield complies with the
requirements of the Head-Up Display to enable
a precise display. A film in the windshield pre-
vents double images from being displayed.
Windshield replacement should be carried out
by a BMW center or a workshop that works
according to BMW repair procedures with cor-
respondingly trained personnel.
