The design intended for specific BMW models allows for secure mounting in the steering wheel and correct connection to the vehicle's electrical system.

The element belongs to the Switches, control elements and ignition switches group, which means it is part of a wider control system in the cabin. As a result, it can work with other modules responsible for operating comfort and equipment functions.
