Procedure

Procedure:

Turn the ignition key to terminal R (ignition key in position 1).

NOTE:
Do not cycle the key or perform diagnosis while installing the new software. Make sure that the power supply is stable, i.e. do not switch on any electrical loads. Activate "GPS-Navigation" and acknowledge the screen disclaimer by pushing the rotary knob.





Remove the map CD from the Navigation computer by pressing the eject button.

Note:
It may be the case in some vehicles that the CD sticks in the drive when ejected, due to a piece of a plastic "flash" on the edge of the CD. You can release the CD by knocking lightly on the front panel. It will then be ejected.





Insert the Software CD V 08 into the navigation computer.

The CD-ROM bears the PN. 01 59 9 789 299 Index "j".

Important:
Do no turn off the ignition key during the software loading, it can cause a fault in the navigation computer. In this case it may be necessary to replace the navigation computer.





The monitor will be gray for approx. 20-30 seconds, the message "BITTE WARTEN" (please wait) will appear to be followed by the BMW roundel which will be "filled in" clockwise to show the progress of loading (approx. 3-4 minutes).

Note:
If the roundel does not appear after you have inserted the Software CD, the latest operating software has already been loaded in the navigation computer and video module. The monitor will be gray for up to 20 sec. The message "BITTE WARTEN" will appear. The CD will then be ejected.





Once loading has been completed, a message (see Illustration)
"software has been loaded" is displayed.

Now first remove the CD and then confirm completion of loading by pressing the rotary push-button on the on board monitor. The MENU will be displayed again.

Note:
It is not necessary to recalibrate the navigation system.

Reinsert the customer's map CD into the navigation computer after the menu display appears.
