spot.

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.

Pair a Bluetooth-enabled phone to the vehicle

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
