Hi all,
During my european delivery, Bernard gave me some 'donkey bridges' to remember which direction is which function in iDrive. By remembering this, there isn't a need to hit Menu first, just hold a direction for 2 seconds to jump right to it.
It doesn't work right for RHD cars.
Communication - Up - "Think like you're calling ahead, and ahead is where you're going, so towards the front of the car"
Entertainment - Down - "The entertainment is for the whole car, including the people behind you, so that's towards the back seat"
Navigation - Right - "Before nav systems, your navigator sat to your right holding the map"
Climate - Left - "Advanced vent controls are really something for the driver's comfort, so it points to him or her"
