Rear Seat Entertainment

Hi

Have just bought an X5 and have a question....

I can’t work out how to pair the wireless headphones to the rear entertainment screens....
it says in the manual to turn on then hold the on button until the light flashes.... I can’t get the light to flash??

Any ideas much appreciated

Thanks
Alex

I'm having exactly the same issue with two sets of BMW Headphones. Cannot get them to pair on the RSE.

Mine are both blinking, but don't seem to want to pair at all.

This may sound stupid but make sure that you have the correct headphones. I was really pissed because the headphones from my old E70 did not work with F15. They use a different type of radio connection. I don't recall what was needed to pair them, but I believe that I had to go into the RSE menu to do it.

Yeah it’s really annoying! My car goes in for service in about 1.5k miles so will ask then but for now I’ve had to get the kids to use wired ones as just can’t work it out!!
