Mobile phone preparation with Bluetooth interface.

The cordless Bluetooth mobile phone means you can do away with the cumbersome cable between your mobile handset and the hands-free equipment. Bluetooth-compatible mobile phones register with the on-board computer via the optional interface as soon as the driver approaches the vehicle. Telephone numbers, addresses and call lists are then automatically synchronised with the on-board computer. During the journey, the mobile phone can be operated using the multifunction steering wheel or the hands-free equipment.

Navigation systems in the
BMW 3 Series Convertible.

Convenience plus speed: the optional navigation system Business (including iDrive and Radio Professional with combined CD drive) and navigation system Professional (including iDrive and radio Professional, a DVD drive and a hard drive for maps and audio files for example) guide you safely to your destination. For increased safety, the optional Voice Control allows you to specify new destinations without having to remove your hands from the steering wheel. The 8.8-inch colour screen can be set to split-screen mode, so that the route map is displayed on one side and arrow directions on the other. And while the vehicle is stationary, the screen can also be used as a television.

Voice control.

Voice control puts your words into instant action. It enables you to adjust any of the central iDrive functions by speech alone. It even offers a text-to-speech function that can read incoming e-mails aloud. Convenience, safety, comfort: Voice Control ensures that you are not distracted from the most important aspect of the BMW 3 Series Convertible - driving.
