Some BMW's are factory wired for a cellular phone. Except for wire location, the factory cellular phone
connector looks identical to the factory 3-pin connector used for the CD changer. The CORRECT 3-pin
connector for the CD changer has a BROWN wire (ground) in the #1 pin position. Please make
certain you use this connector.
The INCORRECT factory cellular phone connector has a BROWN wire in the center position—DO NOT
USE THIS CONNECTOR.
Congratulations! You have installed the GROM iPod adapter. You may now use it with your

The GROM-iPod adapter has two modes of operation:
3.2.1 Simple mode:
iPod stays unlocked. Your iPod can be controlled via its clickwheel or via car stereo controls. The
information displayed on your car stereo does not represent the actual song position on the iPod (the

playlist (disk) number. Text is also available for certain stereos. In order to use this mode you have to
prepare your iPod as explained below.
The advanced mode is always on for disks 2-9. To switch to simple mode just select DISK 1
"Ok to disconnect" is shown on the iPod display while it is connected to this unit. The clickwheel of the
iPod is disabled when in this mode.
