flash drives, or mobile phones that are sup‐
ported by the USB audio interface.
Due to the large number of audio devices avail‐
able on the market, it cannot be guaranteed
that every device/mobile phone is operable on
the vehicle.
Depending on the configuration of the audio
files, for example bit rates greater than
256 kbit/s or the number of different compres‐
sion technologies, the files may not play back
correctly in each case.
Information about suitable USB devices can be
found at www.miniusa.com/bluetooth.
Audio files

back.
File systems
Popular file systems for USB devices are sup‐
ported. FAT32 and exFAT are the recom‐
mended formats.
USB device connection
The USB port is located at the front of the cen‐
ter console.
Use a flexible adapter cable for connecting to
help protect the USB audio port and the USB
device from mechanical damage. The adapter
cable supplied with the USB device would be
ideal.
After the first connection
Information about the tracks and directories
stored on the USB device is transferred into the
vehicle. This may take some time, depending
on the USB device, the number of tracks and
the folder structure.

MaintenanceVehicle features and op‐
tions
This chapter describes all standard, country-
specific and optional features offered with the
series. It also describes features that are not
necessarily available in your car, e. g., due to
the selected options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related functions and sys‐
tems. The respectively applicable country provi‐
sions must be observed when using the respec‐
tive features and systems.
MINI maintenance system
The maintenance system indicates required
maintenance measures, and thereby provides
support in maintaining road safety and the op‐
erational reliability of the vehicle.
In some cases scopes and intervals may vary
according to the country-specific version. Re‐
placement work, spare parts, fuels and lubri‐
cants and wear materials are calculated sepa‐
rately. Additional information is available from
the service center.
Condition Based Service
CBS
Sensors and special algorithms take into ac‐
count the driving conditions of your vehicle.
Based on this, Condition Based Service recog‐
nizes the maintenance requirements.
The system makes it possible to adapt the
amount of maintenance corresponding to your
user profile.
Detailed information on service requirements,
refer to page 65, can be displayed on the radio.For service data
Information on the required maintenance is
continuously stored in the remote control. Your
service center will read out this data and sug‐
gest the right array of service procedures for
your vehicle.
Therefore, hand your service specialist the re‐
mote control that you used most recently.
Storage periods
Storage periods during which the vehicle bat‐
tery was disconnected are not taken into ac‐
count.
If this occurs, have a service center update the
time-dependent maintenance procedures, such
as checking brake fluid and, if needed, chang‐
ing the engine oil and the microfilter/activated-
charcoal filter.
