BMW 7 Series: Radio

FM Stations

The layout of the "FM stations" in the Radio menu has been adapted to the new operating concept.

The former layout of the "All stations" list in the form displayed by the CCC has been replaced in the CIC by a list layout.

AM Stations

A double tuner has now made it possible to receive the "All stations" list in the AM range. However, no station information can be displayed because the RDS data is not transmitted for AM.

IBOC

The IBOC functions in connection with the IBOC decoder which is now installed inside the CIC. IBOC makes it possible to receive digital radio signals. The IBOC components are described in detail in the "System Components" section of this training material.

SDARS

The Satellite radio service is available with a subscription to Sirius satellite radio. An example of how a station list would look like in the CIC with channels that have not yet been subscribed to is shown in the illustration below.
