1.Important information for the installation of the basic kit
Only for use in the BMW dealer organisation.
The basic kit may only be installed by a specialist workshop that has the required special tools
and manuals (servicing, repair, diagnostics, etc.).
Ensure that the cables/lines are not kinked or damaged as you install them in the car.
Additional cables/lines that you install must be secured with cable ties/textile adhesive tape.
If the specified PIN's and chambers are occupied, bridges, double crimps or twin-lead terminals
must be used.
Item numbers refer only to the overview drawings and to the texts next to the appropriate figure.
The hands-free kit is only active if the ignition key is turned to position 1 (terminal R) or
further (from ignition key position 1 the telephone ON signal is simulated on the radio).
The radio then sends the telephone signals to the on-board speakers.
"
The interior trim parts supplied in the trim colour black are also available in other trim
colours and can be ordered using the electronic parts catalogue (EPC).
"
These installation instructions are only valid for cars
- without an on-board monitor radio with a production date after 9/00 or
- with an on-board monitor radio with a production date after 10/01.
"
The power supply wiring harness B is only required for BMW 5 Series touring (E39/2)
LHD cars.
