Use the BMW Wonder Wheel with your CHIGEE Display

Use the BMW Wonder Wheel to navigate CHIGEE Display pages, control recording preview and use supported CarPlay or Android Auto interfaces.

The BMW Wonder Wheel can control supported functions on a compatible CHIGEE Display, but its behavior depends on the screen you are using and whether Vertical Scrolling is enabled. It cannot directly change music volume or zoom a map by turning the wheel alone.

Zoom a navigation map with the Wonder Wheel

The BMW Wonder Wheel cannot directly zoom the map by turning the wheel when navigation is projected through CarPlay or Android Auto. On supported navigation interfaces, you can move the cursor to the on-screen zoom control instead.

  1. Enable Vertical Scrolling on the CHIGEE Display if your setup requires it.

  2. Move the cursor to the on-screen plus (+) or minus (−) control.

  3. Short-press right to select the control and zoom in or out.

Navigation-app support varies. If the map does not respond to the on-screen zoom controls, check the app's compatibility with CarPlay or Android Auto.

For a visual demonstration, see the BMW Wonder Wheel control guide.


Adjust music volume

The BMW Wonder Wheel cannot change music playback volume on the CHIGEE Display. Use the volume buttons on your phone or adjust the volume on your Bluetooth headset.
