Power failure

After a temporary power loss, some equipment needs to be reinitialized.

Individual settings need to be reprogrammed:

▷ Seat and mirror memory: store the positions again.
▷ Time: update.
▷ Date: update
▷ Radio station: save again
▷ Navigation system: wait for the navigation system to be operational.
▷ Glass sunroof/panoramic glass sunroof: it may only be possible to raise the roof. Have the system initialized by the service center.

▷ Digital compass: recalibrate
▷ Active steering: the system automatically initializes for a short time as you drive. During this time, the system is deactivated.
▷ xDrive: the system automatically initializes as you drive. During this time, indicator lamps light up. If the lamps do not disappear during the current trip, have the system checked.
