Introduction

Some external devices can be connected to the Infotainment system by cable and wireless connections present in the

vehicle (if installed).

The type and number of cable and wireless connections differ by country and vehicle. The connections may also be

different within a model series or in special-edition models.

In the case of cable connections, use only the original device connecting cables or, if available, the factory-supplied

connecting cables for your vehicle.

If the adapter or plug on the connecting cable cannot be inserted, check the angle of insertion and the connections.

NOTICE

Use only suitable and undamaged connecting cables for wired connections.

● When inserting the adapter and plug of the connecting cable into the appropriate port, ensure that they are

correctly positioned and apply only light pressure. Applying too much pressure may damage both the unit

connection and the adapter or plug of the connecting cable.

● Make sure that the connecting cable is not pinched or sharply bent.

● Using unsuitable or damaged connecting cables and adapters may damage devices and cause malfunctioning.

If a connected device is not recognised, disconnect all devices and connect the device again. If necessary,

check that the connecting cable you are using is working properly.

If a connected device malfunctions, restart the device. In some cases this will remedy the

fault.
