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, the but-
tons 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 page169.
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.
