Welcome to BMW

With the audio system, the com-

munication system and the nav-

igation system, BMW Motorrad

places at your disposal three

vehicle components capable

of interchanging data using the

Bluetooth wireless standard. You

also have the option of integrat-

ing other Bluetooth-compatible

systems such as mobile phones,

for example. In this way you can

conduct telephone conversations

and listen to music and naviga-

tion instructions without the awk-

wardness and distraction of extra

wiring.

The systems have to recognise

each other before they can inter-

change data. The steps required

in this process are explained in

these supplementary instructions.

General instructions

Pairing

Two Bluetooth devices have to

recognise each other before they

can communicate. This process

of mutual recognition is known

as pairing. In the pairing process

a Bluetooth-compatible device

searches for visible Bluetooth-

compatible devices within its re-

ception range and saves their

IDs. When two devices have

paired they remember each oth-

er, so the pairing process is con-

ducted only once, on initial con-

tact.

These instructions describe the

pairing procedures for various

combinations of devices. The

presumption is that the following

BMW systems are used:

Audio system of the BMW

K 1600 GT or the BMW

K 1600 GTL.

BMW Motorrad communication

system (in System helmet 5,

System helmet 6, or Sport hel-

met with Bluetooth 2.0)

BMW Motorrad Navigator IV

In principle other systems can be

used as well, but given the pos-

sibility of differences in specific-

ations and the variety of possible

combinations, BMW Motorrad

cannot guarantee flawless opera-

tion. The systems must have the

following properties:

Navigation devices:

HFP (Hands Free Profile) or

HSP (Headset Profile), in or-

der to communication with the

BMW communication system.

Mobile phones:

HFP/HSP, in order to com-

municate with the BMW nav-

igation system or the BMW

communication system.

Communication systems:

A2DP (Advanced Audio Dis-

tribution Profile) in order to

receive audio data from the

BMW audio system.

HFP/HSP, in order to commu-

nicate with the BMW naviga-

tion system.

Two communication systems

(rider and passenger systems)

with the audio system is pos-

sible only with BMW Motorrad

systems. These systems must

support Bluetooth standard 2.0

or higher. Other-make com-

munication systems cannot be

used in this case.

It is absolutely essential to pro-

ceed in the correct sequence

when pairing, as otherwise the

systems will not all function cor-

rectly:

General instructions

The existing pairing entries in

the audio system and in the

communication systems have

to be deleted.

You must first pair the audio

system with the communica-

tion systems.

Only then is it possible to pro-

ceed and pair the communication

systems with other systems or

devices.

The BMW Motorrad communic-

ation system can save only one

A2DP-compatible music device.

If you want to connect a music

device other than the audio sys-

tem to the communication sys-

tem, you must first delete the

paring information relating to the

audio system.

Note on wireless connec-

tions:

Bluetooth is a short-range

wireless technology. Although

Bluetooth is designed to

establish and sustain robust

connections over short distances,

as with every other wireless

technology disruptions are

possible. Interference can affect

connections or connections can

sometimes fail. Particularly when

multiple devices operate in a

Bluetooth network, with wireless

technology of this nature it is

not possible to ensure fault-

free communications in every

situation.

Audio system - helmet

Requirements

- One BMW Motorrad com-

munication system with

Bluetooth 1.2 (pairing with

WCS-1 not possible), with

Bluetooth 2.0 or higher.

- All Bluetooth-compatible

devices within range must

be switched off or their

Bluetooth function must

be deactivated (if applic-

able, use the search func-

tion of a mobile phone

or a navigation system to

check whether unknown

Bluetooth devices are vis-

ible).

Combination level 1

Pairing, audio system

with communication

system of the helmet

Switching on audio

system

Switch on the ignition.

If the audio system does not

come on automatically, press

the ON button.

Deleting pairing entries

Call up the Settings

menu and select Audio -

BT pairing.

Select Unpair all and

Confirm to delete the pair-

ing entries.

Switching on

communication system

Press button 2 and hold it

down until a high-pitched con-

firmation tone sounds and

green LED 6 starts flashing.

The communication system

initialises itself; the green LED

slow-flashes.

The communication system

then goes to standby mode;

the green LED flashes as the

rate of one flash per second.

Combination level 1

Deleting pairing entries in

communication system

Simultaneously press button 1

and button 2 and hold the but-

tons down.

If deletion is successful, green

LED 6 lights up briefly and

then starts slow-flashing to in-

dicate that the system is on

standby. A high-pitched con-

firmation tone sounds.

Note time limit

The next two steps

Make the communication sys-

tem visible

Searching for communication

system

are subject to a time limit of 60

seconds.

Consequently, they must be per-

formed one directly after the oth-

er.

BMW Motorrad recommends

reading through the instructions

for both steps before proceeding.

Making communication

system visible

Simultaneously press

button 2 and button 3 of the

communication system and

hold them down until green

LED 6 doubles the rate at

which it flashes (i.e. starts

flashing at 2 Hz).

The communication system

of the helmet is now visible to

other Bluetooth devices for a

maximum of 60 seconds; the

green LED flashes at a rate of

two flashes per second.

Combination level 1

Searching for

communication system

Call up the Settings

menu and select Audio -

BT pairing.

Select Pair helmet 1 to

establish the connection to the

rider's helmet.

The audio system searches for

visible Bluetooth-compatible

devices; Searching… ap-

pears on the display. All the

devices found in the search are

then listed.

BMW Motorrad communication

systems are shown as

BMW_HE... .

Select the communication sys-

tem to establish the connec-

tion.

Connecting appears on

the display.

If pairing is successful the word

Successful appears on

the display.

Switching off audio

system

Turn off the ignition or, if the

ignition is turned on, press

the ON button.

Combination level 1

Switching off

communication system

Press button 2 and hold it

down until a low-pitched con-

firmation tone sounds and red

LED 4 starts flashing.

The communication system

switches itself off; the red LED

flashes three times.

Switching on systems

Switch on all participating sys-

tems.

The systems recognise each

other; no further steps are ne-

cessary.

Re-establishing

connection

If pairing of the audio system

with the communication system

was successful, but the connec-

tion was not established:

Press the ON button twice in

not too rapid succession so

that the systems reconnect.

As an alternative to connection

setup with the audio system,

you can press button 2 on the

communication system twice

in rapid succession so that the

systems reconnect.
