Radio reception

Changes in steering response, e. g. high
steering effort:
Consult a BMW center to have the
system checked.

If the power steering fails,
increased effort will be required to

steer the vehicle.

Only mobile communications systems
(cellular phone, radio, etc.) with an
output up to 10 watts are permitted.
Mobile communications devices not
specifically designed for use in your
vehicle may trigger malfunctions while
operating your vehicle. BMW can
neither test nor assume responsibility
for every individual product being
offered on the market. We recommend
that you consult your BMW center
before purchasing any device of this
kind.

To ensure that your BMW continues to
provide reliable and trouble-free opera-
tion, do not use a cellular phone or
other radio device with an antenna
located inside the passenger compart-
ment. The antenna should always be
mounted on the outside of the vehicle.

Before loading the vehicle on a
car-carrier train or driving it

through a car-wash, remove the
antenna.

The reception and sound quality
obtained from mobile radios vary
according to a variety of factors,
including the broadcast range of the
transmitter and the directional orienta-
tion of the antenna. Interference factors
such as high-tension power lines,
structural or natural obstructions can all
lead to unavoidable reception interfer-
ence, regardless of how well the vehicle
sound system is operating.
Climatic factors such as intense solar
radiation, fog, rain and snow can also
interfere with reception.

Cellular or portable phones not recom-
mended by BMW can also generate
interference in the radio when making
telephone calls. This phenomenon
assumes the form of a low-pitched hum
emanating from the speaker system.

Please refer to the Owner's Manual
provided with your sound system for
detailed information on its use.
