As soon as the driver brakes or lifts the right foot off the accelerator, Brake Energy Regeneration converts the vehicle's redundant kinetic energy into electric energy and feeds this into the battery. This charging process is indicated by a symbol in the rev counter display. Speed Limit Info detects speed limits and shows the driver the currently applicable speed limit in the Info Display or the optional Head-up Display (only in conjunction with Navigation system Professional*). Lane Departure Warning System uses a camera to recognise whether the vehicle is threatening to stray outside the limits of the lane and alerts the driver by making the steering wheel vibrate. Lane Change Warning System detects vehicles in the driver's blind spot and vehicles approaching at speed in the adjacent lane when the driver has activated the indicator in order to change lanes. The system alerts the driver by making the steering wheel vibrate and by a visual warning on the exterior mirror. The Head-up Display projects relevant data, such as the current road speed, directly into the driver's field of vision. In addition, navigation instructions, functions of the Active Cruise Control with Stop&Go function, functions of the Lane Departure Warning System, Speed Limit Info and Check Control as well as warnings from BMW Night Vision with pedestrian recognition may be shown on the display (not in conjunction with windscreen with grey shade band). Park Assistant makes parallel parking easier. When travelling at speeds below 3 5 km/h, the system measures any parking gaps the vehicle passes. When a big enough gap has been found, the Park Assistant will do the steering, while the driver continues to operate the accelerator and brake pedals. The sensor is harmoniously integrated into the side indicator. Rear view camera shows a clear image of the area behind the vehicle on the Control Display. Interactive tracking lines indicate for example whether or not the intended parking space offers enough room for the vehicle. The rear view camera is activated by engaging reverse gear. Park Distance Control (PDC), front and rear, facilitates the process of parking and manoeuvring in confined spaces, giving you an acoustic signal for the distance between your car and an obstacle, as well as a visual indication in the Control Display. Surround View offers the driver a good view of the area directly around the vehicle when manoeuvring. The BMW is represented as seen from above on the Control Display. The rear view camera enhances visibility when reversing at speeds below 2 0 km/h, for example when parking (only in conjunction with rear view camera and PDC).
