one of the following main menus: Radio/Media or Phone.

If pairing via the phone interface or the Radio/Media menu should fail, pairing can also be performed in the
Network Mobile devices menu.
1. In the app overview, tap
Network Mobile devices.
2. With the factory settings, both Bluetooth and visibility are always activated. If Bluetooth should be deactivated,
tap and activate Bluetooth and Visibility.
3. Open the list of available Bluetooth devices on your cell phone and select the Bluetooth device name for the
Infotainment system. In the factory settings, the Bluetooth® device name of the Infotainment system is “my
VW” and the last four digits of the VIN
.

If the pairing is successful, the data on the cell phone will be saved in the user profile.
5. Optional: Confirm the message for transferring the data on the cell phone.
You generally only need to pair a cell phone once. You can reestablish the cell phone's connection to the
Infotainment system at any time via Bluetooth, without re-pairing the cell phone.
The extent to which the cell phone connected via Bluetooth can be controlled via the Infotainment system
depends on the mobile device.
Please refer to this Owner's Manual for more detailed information on the use of a cell phone via a Bluetooth
connection.
Generally, all warning and operation tones on a connected cell phone, such as touch tones, should be
switched off to avoid interference and malfunctions.
