Phone
Overview
A phone equipped with Bluetooth can be
wirelessly connected to the vehicle's inte-
grated hands-free system.
The audio and media system offers hands-free
functionality for remotely controlling a number
of the phone's features. The phone's inte-
grated controls can also be used, even when it
is connected to the vehicle.
A maximum of 20 Android devices can be
stored at the same time, which may be
worth noting if many people share the
vehicle, e.g. in a car pool. When the list is
full and a new device is connected, the
oldest one will be deleted. A factory reset
must be performed to delete the list.
•
When the phone has been paired and con-
nected to the vehicle, it can be used as an
Internet connection or to make or receive
calls, send or receive text messages or wire-
lessly play music.

to make calls, send/receive text messages
and wirelessly play media from the vehicle, or
connect the vehicle to the Internet.
Two Bluetooth devices can be connected at
the same time, but in that case, only one will
be used for wireless playback. The most
recently paired phone will be automatically
connected to make calls, send/receive text
messages, play media or use as an Internet
connection. It is possible to change what the
phone is used for under Bluetooth Devices
via the settings menu in the center display's
