“Media sources” are audio sources contain-

ing audio files on various different data stor-

age devices (e.g. CD, memory card, external

Please refer to the instructions on the

screen of the Infotainment system and on the

procedure.

WLAN allows wireless connection between an

external audio source (for example a smart

phone) and the Infotainment system.

Controlling playback

The extent to which the WLAN audio source

can be controlled via the Infotainment system

depends on the connected WLAN audio

source and the application used.

To use this connection, the device being con-

nected must have an app compatible with

the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) communi-

cation protocol, allowing the app to provide

the system with the available media content.
