Car radio reception Wind deflectorThe reception and sound quality
obtained from mobile radios vary
according to a variety of factors,
including the broadcast range of the
transmitter and the directional orienta-
tion of the antenna. Interference factors
such as high-tension power lines,
structural or natural obstructions can all
lead to unavoidable reception interfer-
ence, regardless of how well the vehicle
sound system is operating. Climatic
factors such as intense solar radiation,
fog, rain and snow can also interfere
with reception.
Radio interference can also be caused
by either cellular phones not recom-
mended by BMW or by portable
phones. This phenomenon assumes the
form of a low-pitched hum emanating
from the speaker system.
Please refer to the Owner's Manual that
you received for detailed information on
settings and operation of your radio.
You will find additional details
concerning radio reception in the
chapter "Advanced technology" on
page 150.
