Page: 38 / 70

Requirements
Audio devices (such as MP3
players) or suitable media storage
devices (USB drives) can be con-
nected to the audio system via
the plugs in the stowage com-
partment. These plugs include
a 3.5 mm jack
a USB connection (supports
USB 1.1 and USB 2).
The audio device must
have a compatible connector
be stowable inside the stowage
compartment
be able to withstand vibrations
arising from normal motorcycle
use
be able to withstand the high
temperatures occurring inside
the stowage compartment in
summer.
Because of the increased
mechanical stress, certain
unsuitable audio devices may
be damaged, for which BMW
Motorrad accepts no liability.
Refer to the operating instruc-
tions of your audio device for any
possible usage restrictions.
BMW Motorrad advises against
using devices with hard disks as
media storage devices, as vibra-
tions may cause playback to skip
and may damage the device.
The audio system provides a
supply voltage via the USB plug,
though which it is possible to
charge mobile telephones and
other such devices. Connect-
ing several USB devices via a
hub is not possible as the supply
voltage is limited.
