Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
2.3. Head-Up Display
The very name "Head-Up" describes the principle benefit of this system. The Head-Up Display HUD projects a virtual image into the driver's field of vision. Important information such as cruise control details or arrow displays from the navigation system are projected onto the windscreen and are thus permanently visible within the driver's field of view.
The head-up display (option 610) in the F10 contains various functions aimed at enhancing road safety and driving comfort.
- The head-up display includes the following:
- the Dynamic Cruise Control DCC
- the Active Cruise Control with Stop&Go function
- the collision warning with brake application function
- information from the navigation system
- Check Control messages
- road speed.
Having the displays in the driver's direct field of view increases safety, as the eyes are always on the traffic.
