Open the "CarPlay" application on the desktop through the central control screen to enter the CarPlay main menu. Turn on the Bluetooth on your phone, find and connect to the device starting with "BMW" through device search. A pop-up window will appear on your phone, click "Use CarPlay"; once connected, the CarPlay main interface will be displayed on the central control screen.

I recently figured out how to connect BMW's wireless CarPlay, and it feels super convenient. First, make sure your iPhone's Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are turned on. After starting the vehicle, go to the iDrive system on the central control screen, select 'Communication' and then 'Mobile Devices,' and add your iPhone. Choose the CarPlay option, and a confirmation prompt will pop up on your iPhone—just tap 'Agree' to complete the pairing. The whole process takes just a few minutes, and you can directly use maps for navigation or Apple Music while driving, which is much safer than using your phone. If the connection is unstable, it might be due to outdated vehicle software or network interference; try restarting your phone or updating the BMW system. Wireless CarPlay makes commuting more effortless, and I especially love listening to podcasts during traffic jams to pass the time.

How to Adjust Car Mirrors?

Adjust the seat properly, then start adjusting the left rearview mirror. Adjust the lower right corner of the left rearview mirror until you can see the front door handle. When the front door handle is visible, the very front of the front door handle should appear at the lower left corner of the rearview mirror. The rear door handle, front door handle, and the bottom edge of the rearview mirror should align vertically. After adjusting your sitting posture, look straight into the rearview mirror. The lowest visible edge should align with the top edge of the rear seat backrest. The horizontal axis should be at the height of the rear seat headrest.

What is the normal color of car engine oil?

Car engine oil is normally light yellow in color. The functions of engine oil are: 1. To separate the surfaces of relatively sliding parts, thereby reducing wear; 2. To bring heat back to the oil tank and then dissipate it into the air to help the radiator cool the engine; 3. To circulate carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine parts back to the oil tank, flushing away dirt generated on the working surfaces of parts through the flow of the lubricating oil. The method for changing engine oil is: 1. Use a jack to lift the vehicle, locate the drain plug and unscrew it to drain the oil; 2. After unscrewing the oil filter, place a container beneath it; 3. Replace with a new oil filter and add new engine oil.

How to Use the M+ and M- in Automatic Transmission?

The usage of M+ and M- in automatic transmission is to shift the gear lever to the M position. The M gear refers to a manual gear position on a manual-automatic transmission, which allows manual control of the transmission's upshifting and downshifting. There is no need to press the clutch in manual mode, and the engine will not stall. Using the M gear can help maintain sufficient power when the vehicle is climbing a slope. Car gear operations: 1. D is the drive gear, used when driving on the road; 2. R is the reverse gear, which can only be engaged after the car has come to a complete stop; 3. P is the parking gear, used when the car is stationary and should be accompanied by pulling the handbrake; 4. L is the low gear, which provides greater power output; 5. N is the neutral gear, used when the car is temporarily stopped.
