How To Save Radio Stations On BMW?

BMW / By

The eight buttons are function buttons rather than radio presets, albeit one of them can access the list of radio presets. I do. You can simply reach your stations via the steering wheel scroll once they have been loaded as presets.

According to my memory, presets can store 150 AM, FM, or satellite stations in the order you specify. I just keep one radio station (WTOP news); the others are used for different purposes.

What do I do with the additional function buttons? Display off, contact list on the phone, navigation, tone controls, etc.

Just so you know, one can opt to store radio stations using the “hard” memory buttons. I just keep one radio station (WTOP news); the others are used for different purposes. It sounded like you couldn’t utilize the buttons to store stations in your response.

On my BMW, how do I remove a saved station?

My 2017 X3, model xDrive35i, has the updated iDrive interface with the phone menu button on the left rather than the right side of the knob.

To delete a radio station on my prior BMW’s (earlier iDrive interface), I would just move the knob to the right, and “Delete Entry” would appear as a menu option. The radio station would be eliminated, and the list would collapse. I don’t want to replace the radio station with another one by accident.

You will need to overwrite the current option if you’re referring to the preset buttons. It is not necessary for it to be a radio station. I have given other people their own phone numbers and use my own to get directly to the trip computer page.

I apologize for forgetting to mention that I previously found the answer for myself in a previous post. Once the radio station has been chosen, simply press the new “Option” button next to the iDrive controller to see the option page, where you can choose to remove the radio station.

What does the BMW A off button do?

The engine’s automatic start/stop at stops is managed by this button. If the light above the button is ON, the feature is ON, meaning that the engine won’t shut off on its own when you stop to conserve fuel.

Ha, be polite. When I purchased my automobile three weeks ago, I had the similar inquiry, but I was able to find the answer in the handbook or one of the extras. And I had to read it a few times before I understood it. BMW enjoys including switches that must be lit in order to turn the system off.

When you are prepared to move, engage the clutch, and it restarts. In the options, you may make it default either on or off. Since US spec is typically set to be off, the light is always present. I’ve thought about setting it as the default to be on so I don’t see that stupid light, but when it cuts out, it feels strange, like I’ve destroyed the engine.
