BlueMusic Bluetooth Music Adapter Instruction Manual

Model: 4251072613315 | Brand: BlueMusic

1. Introduction

The BlueMusic Bluetooth Music Adapter is designed to enable wireless music streaming in compatible BMW and Mini vehicles. This adapter connects to your vehicle's existing CD changer wiring, allowing you to stream audio from your Bluetooth-enabled device directly through your car's sound system. It integrates seamlessly, providing control over tracks via your car's radio and steering wheel controls.

2. Compatibility

This adapter is compatible with the following vehicle models and radio systems, provided they have the 3+6 pin CD changer wiring available:

  • BMW: E46, E39, E38, X5 E53, X3 E83, Z4 E85, E86
  • Mini: R50, R52, R53

Important Note: The 3+6 pin CD changer wiring must be present in your vehicle. If an original CD changer is not installed, the necessary plugs may still be present, but in some cases, they might be partially or entirely unavailable. This adapter is generally compatible with BMW Professional and Mini Boost CD radios. It is not compatible with basic CD radios that do not support a CD changer function.

4. Installation Guide

The BlueMusic adapter is designed for a discreet installation, typically in the trunk or central console (for Z4/X3 models), avoiding complex cable routing. Follow these steps for installation:

  1. Locate CD Changer Wiring: Identify the 3+6 pin CD changer connector in your vehicle. This is usually found in the trunk, glove compartment, or behind the radio unit.
  2. Disconnect Existing CD Changer (if applicable): If an original CD changer is installed, carefully disconnect its wiring harness from the vehicle's main connector. Ensure to lift any plastic covers completely and release clips before pulling the connector.
  3. Connect BlueMusic Adapter:
    • Connect the BlueMusic adapter's 3+6 pin connector to the vehicle's corresponding CD changer port.
    • If your vehicle has a "CD Business Radio," connect the BlueMusic adapter to the radio unit itself. Ensure the 10-pin connector (if present) is plugged in firmly. A loose connection here can result in no audio output.

  4. Secure Wiring: Carefully route and secure the cables to prevent them from being pinched or damaged. For installations behind the radio, patience is key to neatly tucking the wires.
  5. Test Functionality: Before fully reassembling, proceed to the "Operating Instructions" section to test the adapter's functionality.

5. Operating Instructions

Once the BlueMusic adapter is installed, follow these steps to use it:

  1. Power On: The adapter will power on automatically when your car is unlocked or the door is opened, and it will turn off when the ignition is killed.
  2. Pair Bluetooth: On your mobile device, search for Bluetooth devices and select "BlueMusic" to pair. A successful connection will be indicated by an audible confirmation or a change in the adapter's LED status (if applicable).
  3. Select Source: On your car's radio, press the "MODE" button or equivalent until you select the CD changer source. This is often displayed as "CD 01-01" or similar.
  4. Play Music: Start playing music from your paired device. The audio will now be routed through your car's speakers.
  5. Control Music: You can control music playback (e.g., skip tracks) using your car's radio controls or steering wheel controls. Adjust the volume directly from your car's head unit.
