Your car is equipped with a wireless charging  
tray (WCA) to charge your mobile phone and  
connect it to the mobile network. To ensure  
the best possible connection a signal booster  
(LTE-Compensator) is used in conjunction  
with the WCA. The following paragraphs refer  
to this booster:  
If you should be requested by the FCC to  
cease operating your booster you are not al‐  
lowed to insert your mobile phone in the  
charging tray anymore unless the booster is  
permanently deactivated by your local BMW  
dealer.  
This is a CONSUMER device.  
You must not remove the booster from the car  
nor use it with any other than the pre-installed  
coupling device or antenna. Any modification  
of the existing antenna or coupling device as  
well as the use of other antennas or coupling  
devices will cause the cease of the booster´s  
operating license.  
BEFORE USE, you MUST REGISTER THIS  
DEVICE with your wireless provider and have  
your provider´s consent. Most wireless provid‐  
ers consent to the use of Compensators.  
Some providers may not consent to the use of  
this device on their network. If you are unsure,  
contact your provider. You MUST operate this  
device with approved antennas and cables as  
specified by the manufacturer. Antennas  
MUST be installed at least 20 cm (8 inches)  
from any person. You MUST cease operating  
this device immediately if requested by the  
FCC or a licensed wireless service provider.  
WARNING E911 location information may not  
be provided or may be inaccurate for calls  
served by using this device.  
The booster device fulfils the network protec‐  
tion standards as required by the FCC, such as  
intermodulation limits, oscillation detection  
and gain limits.
