Interior equipmentVehicle equipment
All standard, country-specific and optional
equipment that is offered in the model series is
described in this chapter. Therefore, equipment
is also described that is not available in a vehicle,
e. g., because of the selected optional equip‐
ment or country variant. This also applies for
safety-related functions and systems.
Integrated universal remote
control
The concept
This system can replace up to three different
hand-held transmitters for various types of re‐
mote-controlled equipment, such as garage
doors or lighting systems.
The hand-held transmitter signal can be pro‐
grammed on one of the three memory buttons.
The corresponding device can then be operated
using the programmed memory button.
The LED indicates that a signal is being trans‐
mitted.
When selling the vehicle, delete the stored pro‐
grams for security reasons.
During programming
During programming and before activat‐
ing a device using the integrated universal re‐
mote control, ensure that there are no people,
animals, or objects in the range of movement of
the remote-controlled device; otherwise, there
is a risk of injury or damage.
Also follow the safety instructions of the hand-
held transmitter.◀
Compatibility If this symbol is printed on the packaging
or in the instructions of the hand-heldtransmitter, the remote-controlled device is
generally compatible with the integrated univer‐
sal remote control.
If you have any questions, please contact:▷Your service center.▷www.homelink.com on the Internet.

The LED flashes slowly.5.Release both buttons when the LED flashes
rapidly.
If the LED does not flash rapidly after approx.
60 seconds, change the distance and repeat
the step.
Canada: if the LED is not flashing rapidly af‐
ter approx. 60 seconds, change the distance
and repeat the step, or, if the programming
was interrupted by the hand-held transmit‐
ter, hold down the memory button and press
and release the button on the hand-held
transmitter again for 2 seconds.6.To program other hand-held transmitters,
repeat steps 3 to 5.
The device can be operated using the memory
button with the engine running or the ignition
switched on.
Malfunction
If the device cannot be used after repeated at‐
tempts at programming, please check whether
the hand-held transmitter is equipped with an
alternating code system.
To do so:
▷Read the instructions of the hand-held
transmitter.▷Hold down the memory button of the
integrated universal remote control longer.
If the LED of the integrated universal remote
control flashes rapidly for a brief period and then
lights up continuously, the hand-held transmit‐
ter is equipped with an alternating code system.
In this case, program the memory buttons as
described under Alternating-code hand-held
transmitters.
Alternating-code hand-held
transmitters
Please obtain information on synchronizing the
device in the operating manual of the device be‐
ing set up.
Programming will be easier with the aid of a sec‐
ond person.1.Park the vehicle within range of the remote-
controlled device.2.Program the integrated universal remote
control as described above under Fixed-
code hand-held transmitters.3.Locate the button on the receiver of the de‐
vice to be set, e.g., on the drive.4.Press the button on the receiver of the de‐
vice to be set. You have approx. 30 seconds
for the next step.5.Hold down the programmed memory button

At a glance
The concept
Mobile phones or other external devices such as
audio players can be connected to the vehicle
via Bluetooth.
After these devices are paired once, they are
recognized automatically when the ignition is
switched on as soon as they are inside the ve‐
hicle and can be operated via iDrive, the buttons
on the steering wheel, and via voice activation.
Depending on their functionality, external devi‐
ces can be used via the vehicle as a telephone
or as an audio source.
The telephone functions are described in the
following. Operation of the audio functions, refer
to page 212.
Up to four external devices can be paired.
Certain functions may need to be enabled by the
mobile phone provider or service provider.
Using the mobile phone while driving
Make entries only when traffic and road
conditions allow. Do not hold the mobile phone
in your hand while you are driving; use the
hands-free system instead. If you do not ob‐
serve this precaution, you can endanger the ve‐
hicle occupants and other road users.◀Snap-in adapter
The snap-in adapter is used to:▷Hold the mobile phone.▷Recharge the battery.▷Connect the mobile phone to an outside an‐
tenna of the vehicle.
This provides for better network reception
and consistent sound quality.
