Exposure to radio frequency
technology
BMW strongly recommends the use of a base
plate with a snap-in adapter* in your car. The
use of this special equipment allows your
mobile phone to operate via the external antenna, enabling the phone to decrease the output
power. This reduces electromagnetic exposure.
Bluetooth®wireless technology is a shortrange radio frequency, where signals are transmitted through the airways.
Please ask your BMW center for details of
which mobile phones are supported and for
which mobile phones snap-in adapters are
available.
BMW discourages the use of mobile
communications devices, e.g. portable
phones, inside the vehicle without a direct
connection to an outside antenna. Otherwise,
the vehicle electronics and mobile communication device can influence one another. In
addition, there is no assurance that the radiation which results from transmission will be
dissipated from the vehicle interior.
For your own safety
A mobile phone provides a range of services
and may even be employed to save lives.
Safety instructions are contained in the separate Owner’s Manual for your mobile phone.
Please also note the following additional information:
Settings
Only adjust the settings when the vehicle is at a standstill to avoid endanger-
ing yourself and other road users.
Using the mobile phone in
the car
Using a handheld mobile phone while
driving is dangerous and is illegal in
many cities. Therefore, use the hands-free
system or park in an area where you do not
endanger yourself or traffic.
Using the mobile phone in
the vicinity of the car
Do not use your phone in garages, at
gasoline stations or in the vicinity of an
open engine hood.
Antenna
Ensure that no one is located within 20
in/50 cm of the external antenna when
using the telephone. Do not use your mobile
phone if the antenna is damaged. Skin contact
with a damaged antenna can cause minor
burns.
Have a damaged antenna replaced immediately.
