The concept
Your BMW is equipped with a full preparation
package mobile phone. After pairing a suitable
mobile phone with the vehicle once, you can
operate the mobile phone via the iDrive, the
buttons on the steering wheel or using voice
commands
*.
Once a mobile phone has been paired with your
vehicle, it is automatically recognized as soon
as it is inside the vehicle while the engine is run-
ning or the ignition is switched on. You can
store the pairing data for up to four mobile
phones simultaneously. If several mobile
phones are detected at the same time, the
mobile phone last paired can be operated via
the vehicle.
Using the telephone inside
the vehicle
Using the snap-in adapter*
The so-called snap-in adapter, a holder for
mobile phones, allows you to charge the mobile
phone's battery and connect the mobile phone
to your vehicle's outside antenna. This ensures
better network reception and consistent repro-
duction quality. Please contact your
BMW center to find out for which mobile
phones there are snap-in adapters available.
For your safety
A car phone makes life more convenient in
many ways, and can even save lives in an emer-
gency. While you should consult your mobile
phone's separate operating instructions for a
detailed description of safety precautions and
information, we request that you direct your
particular attention to the following:
Only make entries when the traffic situa-
tion allows you to do so. Do not hold the
mobile phone in your hand while you are driving;
use the hands-free system instead. If you do not observe this precaution, your being dis-
tracted can endanger vehicle occupants and
other road users.<
Suitable mobile phones
Please ask your BMW center which mobile
phones with Bluetooth interface are supported
by the mobile phone preparation package and
which mobile phones are compatible with the
snap-in adapter. By virtue of their particular
software versions, these mobile phones sup-
port the functions described in this Owner's
Manual. Malfunctions may occur with other
mobile phones.
Operating options
You can operate the mobile phone using:
>Buttons on the steering wheel, refer
to page10
>iDrive, refer to page16
>Voice commands
*, refer to page178
>Programmable memory keys, refer
to page21
Avoid operating a mobile phone recognized by
the vehicle via the mobile phone's keypad; oth-
erwise, malfunctions may result.
Start-up
Pairing the mobile phone with the
vehicle
The following prerequisites must be met:
>Compatible mobile phone: The mobile
phone is supported by the full preparation
package mobile phone. You can obtain
information on the Internet at:

>The mobile phone is ready to operate.
>Bluetooth is activated in the vehicle, refer to
page173, and on the mobile phone.
>Depending on the mobile phone, certain
settings may be necessary on the mobile
phone, e.g., via the following menu items:
>Bluetooth switched on
>Connection must be allowed without
requiring further confirmation
>Reconnection
>Depending on the mobile phone type, the
power-saving mode setting, for example,
may result in a paired mobile phone not
being detected by the vehicle.
>For pairing purposes, define any 4 to 16-
digit number as a Bluetooth passkey,
e.g. 25081107. A long and complex number
offers the best protection against unautho-
rized access. This Bluetooth passkey is no
longer required after pairing has been suc-
cessful.
>The ignition is switched on.
Pair the mobile phone with the vehicle
only when the car is stationary, to avoid
endangering the car's occupants and other
road users by being distracted.<
Switch on ignition
1.Insert remote control all the way into the
ignition lock.
2.Switch on ignition without operating the
brake or clutch or pressing the start/stop
button.

Preparation via the mobile phone
6.Further steps must be carried out with the
mobile phone and vary depending on the
model. Please refer to your mobile phone's
operating instructions, e.g., under the top-
ics of Searching for a Bluetooth device,
Linking or Pairing.
The Bluetooth name of the vehicle appears
on the mobile phone display.
7.Select the Bluetooth name of the vehicle on
the mobile phone display.
Logging in
Depending on your mobile phone, you will see
messages, first on the mobile phone display or
on the iDrive, requesting you to enter the
same Bluetooth passkey previously deter-
mined by you.
8.Enter the Bluetooth passkey.
Depending on the mobile phone, you will
have approx. 30 seconds to enter your
Bluetooth passkey on the mobile phone
and the Control Display.
If the pairing was successful, the mobile phone
appears at the top of the list of mobile phones.

Following the initial pairing
>The mobile phone is detected/connected in
the vehicle within 2 minutes if the engine is
running or the ignition is switched on.
>As soon as a mobile phone is detected by
the vehicle, the phone book entries stored
on the SIM card or on your mobile phone are
transmitted to the vehicle. This transmis-
sion is dependent on your mobile phone,
refer to the operating instructions of the
mobile phone if necessary, and can take
several minutes.
>Four mobile phones can be paired.
>Specific settings may be necessary in some
mobile phones, e.g., authorization or a
secure connection, refer to the mobile
phone operating instructions.
If not all phone book entries are displayed:
>Transfer all phone book entries from the
SIM card to the mobile phone, if necessary.
>Phone book entries with special characters
may not be displayed.
Checks to perform if pairing is
unsuccessful
>Is the mobile phone supported by the
mobile phone preparation package? You
can obtain information on the Internet at:
www.bmw.com/bluetooth.
>Do the Bluetooth passkeys on the mobile
phone and vehicle match? The same Blue-
tooth passkey must be entered on the
mobile phone's display and via iDrive.
>Did it take you more than 30 seconds to
enter the Bluetooth passkey? Then repeat
the pairing procedure.
>Are too many Bluetooth devices connected
to the mobile phone? If so, delete the con-
nections with other devices on the mobile
phone.
>Is the mobile phone no longer responding?
Switch the mobile phone off and on or
briefly disconnect the power supply.>Repeat the pairing procedure.
>If all items on the list have been checked
and the mobile phone still cannot be paired,
please contact Customer Relations.
