Installation time
The installation time is approx 1.75 hours, but may vary depending on the condition of the car and the equipment
in it.
Important information
These installation instructions are primarily designed for use within the BMW dealership organisation and by
authorised BMW service companies.
In any event, the target group for these installation instructions is specialist personnel trained on BMW cars with
the appropriate specialist knowledge.
All work must be completed using the latest BMW repair manuals, circuit diagrams, servicing manuals and work
instructions, in a rational order, using the prescribed tools (special tools) and observing current health and safety
regulations.
To avoid unnecessary extra work and/or costs, if any installation or function problem occurs, after a
brief troubleshooting session (approx. 0.5 hours), please contact the following:
1. Either your national subsidiary or your regional office, or
2. The Support team via the Aftersales Assistance Portal (ASAP) using the optional technical parts
   support application.
Specify the chassis number and the part number of the installed retrofit kit and give a precise
description of the problem.
Do not archive the hard copy of these installation instructions since daily updates are made by ASAP!
Installation information
In countries in which image reproduction is permitted up to a particular speed, the red cable from PIN 2 must be
disconnected at branch A1, insulated and tied back.
Ensure that the cables/lines are not kinked or damaged as you install them in the car. Costs incurred as a result of
this will not be reimbursed by BMW AG.
Additional cables/lines that you install must be secured with cable ties.
If the specified PIN chambers are occupied, bridges, double crimps or twin-lead terminals must be used.
All pictures show LHD cars; proceed accordingly on RHD cars.
In cars without an ancillary connection, the retrofit must be programmed / coded using SSS (software service
station) via the CIP, retrofit aux-in connection path.

In cars with CCC, it may be necessary to initialise ACM unit C after an upload to the flash memory or after uploading
a new software status into the car.
Proceed as follows if the screen flashes:
- Disconnect branch A15, blue 26-pin, at ACM unit C and disconnect the cable from pin 12
- Reconnect branch A15 and switch on the ignition, the display now no longer flashes but has a screen offset of
  approx. 1/3 of a screen
- Switch off the ignition
- Disconnect branch A15 and connect the previously disconnected cable back into pin 12
- Connect branch A15 to ACM unit C and switch on the ignition
Initialisation has been performed.
