Can you use the programmable buttons only to access "list" items such as telephone numbers, destinations and radio stations, or can you use them to access general iDrive screens? For example, can I program a button to display the "map in direction of travel"?

 

I tried this when I picked up the car last week -- it seems to be list items only. I certainly couldn't get it to display the map, althought to be fair this can easily be done with a couple of iDrive operations (or voice control for that matter). I'd go and check the details but my car is at the dealer with a PAS fault.

The manual states that the functions are:

Navigation destinations
Telephone numbers
Radio stations
CD (current track if you are listening to MP3s)
CD compartment of CD changer
TV
Aux

Thanks for the clarification.
