Installation Instructions - BMW F10 CarPlay MMI Prime
To connect an iPhone for the first time go to your iPhone’s Settings -> Bluetooth and wait a few
seconds to allow the iPhone to discover the MMI’s Bluetooth network called CarPlayMMI:
Once the CarPlayMMI appears on the Bluetooth list, press the Start Search button in the MMI menu.
As soon as your iPhone appears on the list you can stop the search by pressing down on the iDrive
controller again. Then scroll down to highlight your iPhone’s name on the list and press the iDrive
controller to confirm the connection.
Wait around 10 seconds for a couple of confirmation messages to start appearing on your iPhone and
confirm them. Once you confirm all of the iPhone's requests, CarPlay will connect wirelessly every
time you start your car. Just give it some time to boot up when doing a cold start.
