PAIRING WITH OTHER DEVICES
WARNING
Bluetooth pairing while on the move
Risk of accident due to distraction
Do not attempt Bluetooth pairing unless
the vehicle is at a standstill.
Despite the standardisation of
Bluetooth and the interoperability
this has created between many devices,
there can be no guarantee that all available
Bluetooth devices will function correctly.
BMW Motorrad recommends switching
to MESH Intercom as soon as more
than two participants want to communicate
with each other.
The ConnectedRide Com U1 can be
paired to several Bluetooth devices. When
the device is paired to more than two
BMW Motorrad communication systems, it is
advisable to switch to MESH Intercom. Bear
in mind that the ConnectedRide Com U1
is the only communication system that
supports the Mesh Intercom function. Other
BMW Motorrad communication systems
such as the V3 communication system or
the Fit-for-All communication system need a
Com U1 in order to be added to the Mesh
Intercom. The ConnectedRide Com U1,
moreover, can be paired to phones, MP3
players and GPS devices.
MESH Intercom connections recognise each
other automatically. Pairing is not necessary
for Mesh Intercom.
Bluetooth Intercom connections recognise
each other automatically and the pairing is
retained.
If several devices have been paired by
Bluetooth Intercom, automatic connection is
to the most recently connected device.
Up to three Intercom connections can be
saved.
To select the most recent of the three con-
nections, in standby mode and within range
of the device, press button 1 three times.
