use infrared headphones that comply with the
IEC 61603-2 standard.
>Compatible infrared headphones and infor-
mation about supported headphones are
available at your BMW Sports Activity Vehi-
cle Center.
When using infrared headphones, it is
important not to interrupt the infrared
connection between the headphones and the
