Overview
The concept
Mobile phones or other external devices, e.g.
audio players, can be connected to the vehicle
via Bluetooth.
Bluetooth® is a registered trademark of Blue-
tooth® SIG, Inc.
After being paired once, when the ignition is
switched on, these devices are automatically
detected as soon as they are present in the
vehicle and can be controlled via iDrive, by the
buttons on the steering wheel, and by voice.
Depending on whether they are functioning as a
telephone and/or as an audio source, external
devices can be used via the vehicle. The tele-
phone functions will be described below. Oper-
ation of audio functions, refer to page 192.
Up to four external devices can be paired.
It may be necessary for some functions to be
activated by the mobile phone provider or ser-
vice provider. Only make entries when traffic conditions
permit. Do not hold the mobile phone in
your hand while you are driving; use the hands-
free system instead. Otherwise, you may
endanger vehicle occupants and other road
users. <
Snap-in adapter
The snap-in adapter makes it possible:
>Accommodate the mobile phone.
> Recharge its battery.
> Connect it to an external antenna of the
vehicle.
This assures a better network connection
and constant sound quality.
Suitable mobile phones
For precise information about which mobile
phones and external devices with a Bluetooth
interface are supported by the mobile phone
preparation, go to www.bmwusa.com/blue-
tooth.
Displaying vehicle identification
number and software part number
Checking which mobile phones are supported
by the mobile phone preparation requires the
vehicle identification number and software part
number. The software version of the mobile
phone may also be required.
1."Telephone"
2. Open "Options".
3. "Bluetooth® info"
4. "Display system information"
With a certain software version, these suitable
mobile phones support the vehicle functions
described below.
With other mobile phones or software versions,
malfunctions may occur.
A mobile phone that is connected to the vehicle
should not be operated via the mobile phone
keypad; otherwise, malfunctions may occur.
It is possible to perform a software update, refer
to page 196.

played; otherwise, only the number is dis-
played.
If a contact is assigned more than one phone
number, then only the name of the caller is dis-
played.
With calls to the auxiliary phone, only the num-
ber is displayed if it is transmitted by the net-
work.
An incoming call to a phone is automatically
rejected if a call on the other phone is currently
active.
