1. Important information on installing the CD changer in the E38
Only for use in the BMW dealer organisation.
The CD changer may only be installed by a specialist workshop that has the required special
tools and manuals (servicing, repair, diagnostics, etc.).
On cars without a navigation computer and/or without CD changer preparation in the boot
the boot trim on the left must be ordered separately using the Electronic Parts Catalogue
(EPC).

Before installing the power supply cable and the CD changer connection cable, check
whether the required black 3-pin socket casing or the white 3-pin socket casing for the
power supply and the black 6-pin socket casing or the black 10-pin socket casing for the
CD changer connection cable are tied back on the left-hand side of the boot.

In cars with an on-board monitor radio the CD changer connection cable is only installed
in the boot.

When installing cables/leads ensure that they are not kinked or damaged.
Additional cables/leads 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.
