BMW 7 Series: Introduction

HISTORY

With the launch of the E65, an optical bus (MOST) was used for the first time in a series production vehicle for the purpose of transmitting digitized audio signals.

With the introduction of the E93 in 2007 a USB interface for external audio devices was offered for the first time in BMW vehicles. The media can be accessed from the iDrive and the audio data played through the vehicle speakers.

NEW FEATURES

The CIC system is a further development of the previous CCC system. The CIC head unit was installed for the first time on the BMW 1 Series and 3 Series in 2008. The New BMW 7 Series, the F01/F02 is equipped with an enhanced version of the CIC system.

By storing data on a 80 GB hard disk, the new head unit provides many new functions and options.

In the audio systems, this development is reflected by the new music collection function. Music files can be converted (ripped) or copied for the music collection onto the hard disk.

Storing the music on the CIC-dedicated hard disk allows fast access to these music files at all times.

A selection of up to 3700 music files (12 GB) is possible.

A USB interface is provided in the glove compartment for import/export purposes (data copy or data backup).

The digital radio systems IBOC tuner/decoder is now integrated in the CIC.

A common station list together with the analog systems provides added convenience.

An improved antenna system makes reception of the radio stations even more stable and less prone to interference. An additional interference suppression filter enhances the reception over long distances, particularly in the AM range.

A modified base plate makes it possible to connect to and play back music tracks stored in the mobile phone with the Smartphone Integration option (6NF). This option is currently available only with the iPhone.

Music tracks stored in the mobile phone can now be easily accessed. Simple menu navigation and playback of these music tracks can now be controlled via the iDrive.
