iPod / iPhone, mobile phone or USB devices
(MP3 player, USB flash drive). These devices
can be operated via iDrive.
Standard audio formats, e.g. MP3, WMA, WAV
(PCM) and AAC, and playlists in the M3U format
can be played.
Due to the large number of different audio
devices/mobile phones available on the market,
it cannot be ensured that every audio device/
mobile phone is operable on the vehicle.
Ask about suitable au dio devices/mobile
phones at your BMW center.

take some time. The duration depends on the
USB device and the number of tracks.
During transfer, you can select the tracks using
the directories and file names.
After transfer, you can call up the tracks using
the information and playlists.
Information from up to four USB devices can be
stored in the vehicle, or a total of about 16,000
tracks.
If a fifth USB device is connected, the informa-
tion stored in the vehicle on the tracks of the
first USB device is deleted.

ties understanding you, this may be due to
excessive background noise. The full mobile
