Driver Assistance Dashboard Icons

Hey there, friends!

Just picked up my 2017 X3 on Saturday, and I'm loving it! I'm slowly learning how to use all the new gadgets. That being said, does anybody know what the below dashboard icons are for? I know the car icon at the top is the Oncoming Vehicle Proximity warning light, and the yellow lines (the ones that are turned on) are the Lane Departure lights. However, what are the icons between the Lane Departure lights? I see them light up when I start the car (along with everything on the dash, which is what happens in all cars,) but I haven't been able to figure out what they mean



Thank you!

Thanks for the link!

That thread/video explains what the Lane Departure does and shows the Lane Departure lights on the dash, but doesn't explain what the lights between the Lane Departure icons are. Any ideas?

I believe the horizontal lines in between the lane departure converging lines relate to the active cruise control, if you have this option. You can see the display in operation in the video at the link below.

Yup. Those blocks are for ACC+. I coded mine to default to one block for following distance.
