For control DVD player BOA 85700 additional cable kit 1479 is necessary
The interface can only be used without (!) the original TV tuner! Only the navigation system “Professional“ with
the 8,8“ screen is able to be connected with an external video source. For this issue, the TV icon in the iDrive
menu has to be activated with part no. 10091591, which is available separately. Without this procedure, the use
of the interface 1555 is not possible.
ATTENTION!
The TV icon may only be activated with part no. 10091591. Activating it via a diagnostic computer at a
BMW garage mustn’t be done!
BMW cars WITHOUT further MOST
®
components (e.g. CD-changer, phone…) nevertheless have fibre
optics connected in the main connector at the head unit. These are used for diagnostic purposes and
lead to a socket behind the glove box. The connector is clogged with a pretended bridge, which is
physically not a bridge at all. In this case the MOST
®
fibre optic ring has to be closed after installation
by using a “real” bridge (part no. 1601)!
ATTENTION!
The BMW head unit with a connected interface IMU 1555 and active TV mode generally is set to the
“PAL” video standard. Therefore the connected video source should be adjusted to “PAL”. Many video
sources (DVB-T tuner, DVD player…) are factory – set to “Auto” mode, which causes the start - up
screen or main menu to be provided in “NTSC” mode. If an automatic switching between “PAL” and
“NTSC” is desired, the video output signal of the source has to be applied to the yellow RCA jack “C”
(pic1) of the interface IMU 1555 via a Y-RCA cable, which is obtainable from audio accessory retailers.
