Mobile devices can be connected to the Infotainment system by cable and wireless connections present in the vehicle.  
The type and number of cable and wireless connections differ according to the vehicle equipment and country. 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 plug on the connecting cable cannot be inserted, check the angle of insertion and the connections.  
NOTICE  
If unsuitable or damaged connecting cables are used or if the connecting cable connector is inserted with strong pressure or in the  
wrong position, this can lead to malfunctions and damage to the device, e.g. the device connection and the connecting cable  
connector may be damaged.  
Use only suitable and undamaged connecting cables.  
When inserting the plugs of the connecting cables into the appropriate connection, ensure that they are correctly positioned and  
apply only light pressure.  
Make sure that the connecting cable is not trapped or sharply bent.  
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.
