How can I quickly change the settings for the instrument cluster and the BMW Head-up display in my BMW with BMW Operating System 8?

In your BMW with BMW Operating System 8, you will find a button on the right side of the steering wheel with a gear icon for direct access to the settings for the instrument cluster and the BMW Head-up display. Tilt the knurled wheel next to the button to the left or right to switch between "CONTENT", "LAYOUT" and "HEAD-UP" and turn the knurled wheel up or down to change the settings.

 

For the "Personal" My Mode you can choose a layout of the instrument cluster.
