USB audio interface
Connections for external
devices
An external audio device or USB device can be
connected to the USB audio interface, for exam-
ple:
> MP3 player
> USB memory stick
> iPod/iPhone
> Suitable mobile phone
If they are supported by the USB audio interface,
these devices can be controlled using the
onboard monitor.
If the mobile phone has a music player connec-
tion, connect the mobile phone using the snap-
in adapter, refer to the separate Owner's Man-
ual. Audio playback is only possible if there is no
device connected to the USB audio interface.
The standard audio formats, e.g. MP3, WMA,
WAV (PCM) and AAC, and playlists in the M3U
format can be played.
Due the variety of audio devices and iPods on
the market, it cannot be guaranteed that every
device will be operable on the vehicle.
Ask your MINI Service which audio devices,
mobile phones or USB devices are suitable.

some time. The duration depends on the USB
device and the number of tracks.
During transfer, you can call up the tracks using
the directories and file names.
After transfer, you can also call up the tracks
using the information and playlists.
Track information from up to four USB devices or
