mobile phone is connected to the USB

ble adapter cable, to protect the USB

damage.<
Connect the USB device to connector 2, using
a flexible adapter cable.
After the device is connected for the first time,
the information on all tracks (e.g. artist, type of
music) and the playlists are transferred from the
USB device to the vehicle. This procedure may
take some time. The duration depends on the
USB device and the number of tracks.
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 audio devices/mobile
phones at your BMW center.
During transmission, the tracks can be called up
via the file directory.

stored in the vehicle, or a total of about 16,000
tracks.
The system can play standard audio formats,
e.g. MP3, WMA, WAV (PCM), and AAC, as well
as playlists in the M3U format.
If a fifth USB device is connected or if more than
16,000 tracks are stored, information on exist-
ing tracks may be deleted.
