Hi guys

Im new to the forum having bought a new F20 114i SPORT with comfort pack 2 weeks ago, and its fantastic.
Ive been driving it for 2 weeks now and have been playing with the Idrive, specifically driving with the Efficient Dynamics showing. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the symbols mean that come up in blue on it? So far, as soon as i turn on the Efficient Dynamics screen it shows a frost symbol to the right of the car in blue and shows the air vents with blue arrows. Occasionaly a little battery symbol shows in blue, also on the right hand side and some other blue bits are shown on the car image. If anyone knows aything about this it would be nice to know what it all means
Thanks

Confratulations on the new car

As for the ED symbols now:

1. Snow flake = Air Condition mode. If it is blue then the AC is on EcoPro mode, meaning it is not working currently and you save fuel. You can notice (if you have the AC on) that it can be blue and suddenly change to grey...that happens when the AC compressor kicks in. Thus, dpeending on the tempereture you have set, the outside temp and the mode (EcoPron, Comfort etc) this symbol telss you when the AC is working (grey) and when it is not (blue).

2. Battery = charging. When it is blue, it means that it is currently charging (and thus all the kinetic energy of the car is transformed to electricity), i.e. you are not pressing the gas pedal and you are rolling. When it is grey it means that it is not charging.

3. Hood symbol (area of the engine) = Auto Start/Stop. When it is blue, it means that you have stoped and the engine is not working as per the function of the Auto Start/Stop. If it is grey it means that you have stoped but the engine is still working (either because you have disabled Auto Start/Stop or because the conditions for the Auto Stop are not met).

I always wondered what they meant (afraid to say I haven't read that particular part of the manual).
