SUBJECT

DVD Navigation Map Disk 

MODEL

E39, E46, E52, E53, E85 Vehicles with DVD Navigation System

INFORMATION

The DVD Map is now available.

DVD Navigation (Option 609) was introduced on E39, E46 and E52 vehicles from 9/02, and on E53 and E85 from 10/02 production.

With the introduction of the new navigation DVD map disk, vehicles equipped with a DVD navigation system only require 1 map disk for the entire US and Canada, compared to the 8 different regional maps with the CD-Rom based system.

IMPORTANT: Before installing the DVD map disk the first time, all stored entries in the 'Address Book' and in 'Destinations' must be deleted.

If these entries are not deleted, the display will lock up when the DVD map is installed and "Please wait" will be displayed on the screen.

In cases where the customers complain about "Please wait" insert the Map CD back into the NAV computer and erase all stored addresses in the 'Address Book' and in 'Destinations'.

Then reinstall the DVD map disk.

CURRENT CUSTOMER DELIVERED DVD NAVIGATION EQUIPPED VEHICLES

All MY2003 E46, E39, E52, E53 and E85 customers who received a regional CD-ROM disk at delivery with their DVD navigation system will receive a DVD map disk.

Mailings of this DVD map disk directly to the customer commenced end of December 2002, using the address information that was provided by you on the original navigation CD order form. Any necessary loading instructions will be included.
