sary to drive with appropriate caution.
Hill Descent Control HDC*
HDC is a downhill driving assistant that controls
your speed on steep downhill gradients and
makes it even easier to control your BMW's
handling under these conditions. The vehicle
then moves slightly faster than double walking
speed without the driver needing to intervene.
You may find it useful to briefly activate DTC
under the following special circumstances:
>
When driving uphill on snow-covered roads,
in slush or on unplowed, snow-covered
roads
HDC can be activated as long as you are driving
under approx. 20 mph or 35 km/h. When driving
downhill at a speed of under approx. 20 mph or
>
>
When rocking a stuck vehicle free or start-
ing off in deep snow or on loose ground
When driving with snow chains
35
km/h, the vehicle's speed is automatically
reduced to slightly more than double walking
speed and maintained.
Activating DTC
Increasing or decreasing speed
By accelerating or braking you can change this
speed within a range from approx. 3 to 15 mph,
approx. 5 to 25 km/h.
You can specify a target speed within the same
range using the cruise control* lever on the
steering column.
Press the button; the indicator lamps for DTC in
the instrument cluster come on.
For better control
If the indicator lamp flashes:
DTC controls the drive forces and
brake forces.

further optimize traction and driving dynamics.
The xDrive four-wheel-drive system distributes
driving power variably to the front and rear axles
depending on the driving situation and road
conditions.
