Mirroring Interface for
BMW CIC & CCC
Version 1.0
1. INTRODUCTION
The Smartlink from Dension is a vehicle and head unit
specific kit, giving you a brand new user experience on your
smartphone with MHL connection. This cutting edge device
allows you to see the exact same content on the car display as you
have on your phone and gives the possibility to control, browse,
run applications, watch videos or play music from the connected
phone.
Other devices like iPhone or iPod touch can also be connected to
the Smartlink (special adapter is required e.g. Lightning Digital
AV adapter for iPhone 5s / 5c /5) but without control option from
the radio.
Smartlink has one additional video input where external video
capable device(s) can be connected like a DVD player, rearview
camera or others with external video output.
Supported MHL capable phones
