Owner's Handbook for Navigation, Entertainment, Communication

jammit · 04-26-2019, 03:40 AM

Sorry if this has already been asked - does anyone have a PDF of this document? Can't find it on this forum, and the dealer doesn't have a copy. The Owners Handbook references this other Handbook on page 8.

There is a BMW mobile app that you can download. By simply entering your VIN, it will give you a comprehensive guide to your X5.

I'm sure there is a PDF available, but I do not have a link to reference.

Tracked this link down for you...simply searching the forum would have brought you here, but find below:

Sorry CLT_X5 - this is not what I'm looking for, but appreciate the reply.
I've been told the mobile app we all have does not cover everything in this Navigation, Entertainment & Communications handbook.
Can someone who has seen both verify this?
Hence my request for a copy of the other handbook.......

My favorite part about the app owner's manual.... the parking job of the X5 on the cover. Was this X5 parked using the self-parking feature?!

I'm fairly sure I read that they no longer provide the separate manuals.

I asked the Genius when I picked up my X5 a few weeks ago. The Navigation etc manual is not available in the US any longer. He wasn't sure whether it's available anywhere. Also, read this thread - https://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1561231. There's a link in it to the iDrive 6 manual.

Here it is, courtesy of BMW Genius....
