Which content is displayed on the BMW Head-up display in my BMW with Operating System 8.5?

The Head-up display projects important information, e.g., speed, onto the windshield in the driver's field of view. Information can be recorded without you having to look away from the road. The steering wheel buttons can be used to configure various views for the Head-up display. Additional settings can be changed on the control display, e.g., brightness or height. 

 

The following information is displayed on the Head-up display:

▷ Vehicle speed.

▷ Navigation instructions.

▷ Check Control messages.

▷ Sport displays.

▷ Shift lights.

▷ Efficiency trainer.

▷ Lists and messages.

▷ Driver assistance systems.

 

Some of this information is only displayed briefly as needed.
