USB audio interface
You can connect an external audio device or
USB device to the USB audio interface.
> MP3 player
> USB memory stick
> iPod/iPhone
> Suitable mobile phone:
You can operate these devices via iDrive, if they
are supported by the USB audio interface.
If equipped with an addi tional connection of the
music player in the mobile phone, connect the
phone by means of the snap-in adapter
*, refer
to page 233. The phone can then be used for
the hands-free system and audio playback. The
audio playback is only po ssible if no device is
connected to the USB audio interface.
The common audio files, e.g. MP3, WMA, WAV
(PCM) and AAC, as well as playback lists in the
M3U format can be played back.
Due to the large number of audio devices avail-
able on the market, operation via the vehicle
cannot be ensured for every audio device.
Ask your BMW Sports Activity Vehicle Center,
which audio devices, mo bile phones, or USB
devices are suitable.
Connecting
Open the lid of the center armrest.
1 Connection for audio playback:
TRS connector 1/8 in/3.5 mm
2 USB interface

In order to connect th e iPod/iPhone, use the
BMW cable adaptor for Apple iPod/iPhone.
For more information, contact a BMW Sports
Activity Vehicle Center or consult our website:
www.bmw.com
For audio playback via the vehicle speakers,
connect the iPod/iPhone to the connections 1
and 2.
The menu structure of the iPod/iPhone is sup-
ported by the USB audio interface.
USB device
Use a flexible adapter cable for connec-
tion to protect the USB interface and your
USB device against mechanical damage.<
For audio playback via the vehicle speakers,
connect the USB device to the connection 2.
After connecting for the first time, the informa-
tion of all tracks, e.g. artist, music genres, and
the playback lists of the USB device are trans-
ferred to the vehicle. This process can take
some time. The time required is dependent on
the USB device and on the number of tracks.
During the transfer you can select the tracks via
the directories and file names.
Following the transfer you can call up the tracks
via the information and playback lists.
The information of up to four USB devices or for
a total of approx. 16,000 tracks can be stored in
the vehicle.
