How do I use the gesture control feature in my BMW 7 Series?

I recently purchased a BMW 7 Series and noticed it has a gesture control feature. How do I use this feature and what gestures can I use to control different functions?

Hi Jennifer, congratulations on your new BMW 7 Series! To use the gesture control feature, make sure it is enabled in the iDrive menu. You can then use hand gestures in front of the center console to control functions such as adjusting volume, answering calls, and scrolling through menus.

Hi Jennifer, I recommend practicing the hand gestures in an empty parking lot before using them on the road to avoid any accidents. You can also customize the gestures to your liking in the iDrive menu. Enjoy your new BMW!

Hi Jennifer, some newer models also have the option to control the sunroof and ambient lighting with hand gestures. Make sure to check your owner's manual for a full list of available gestures.
