Putting the mobile phone into
operation
Your vehicle can save the pairing data for four
mobile phones at any one time. When the
vehicle engine is running or the ignition is swit-
ched on, every paired mobile phone is auto-
matically recognized whenever it is located
inside the vehicle.
Pairing the mobile phone
with the vehicle
The following conditions must be met:
>Suitable mobile phone: The mobile phone is
supported by the full preparation package
mobile phone. Information on this can be
found on the Internet: www.mini.com
>The mobile phone is ready to operate.
>The Bluetooth connection on the vehicle,
refer to page10, and on the mobile phone is
activated.
>Depending on the mobile phone type, it
may be necessary to make certain preset-
tings, e. g. via the following menu items:
>Bluetooth switched on
>Connection without confirmation
>Reconnection
>Depending on the type of mobile phone, for
example, the energy-saving mode may
result in the vehicle not being able to iden-
tify the mobile phone.
>To pair the phone, define a number of your
choice as the Bluetooth passkey, e. g. 1. This
Bluetooth passkey will not be needed again
after the phone has been paired success-
fully.
>The ignition is switched on.
To avoid being distracted and thus posing
an unnecessary hazard both to your own
vehicle's occupants and to other road users, only
pair the mobile phone with the vehicle when the
vehicle is parked.<

Voice quality
If the person you are talking to is unable to hear
you clearly, this may be due to excessive back-
ground noise. The mobile phone preparation
can compensate for these noises to a certain
degree. To optimize voice quality, we recom-
mend the following:
>Reduce background noise, e. g. by closing
the windows, lowering the air volume of the
air conditioning system or opening the four
front air vents and pointing them down-
ward.
>Reduce the volume of the hands-free sys-
tem.
