FSC activation

Recommended product:
BMW LIVE Lifetime FSC for Navigation Map Updates
The FSC region must match both the selected LIVE map package and the region
currently activated in the vehicle.
Region change
Installing LIVE maps from a different region is not a standard map update.
A normal LIVE FSC file does not automatically convert the navigation region.
If the required map region differs from the region currently activated in
the vehicle, purchase the separate FSC Region Change
service before starting the update.
Important compatibility notice
Compatibility must be confirmed using the navigation map version displayed
in the vehicle. The version information must contain
Road Map [Region] LIVE.
Vehicle model, chassis, production year or the presence of an MGU head unit
alone is not sufficient to confirm compatibility.
