Types of phone interface

Depending on the country and vehicle equipment, your vehicle may have the following mobile phone interfaces:

Phone interface basic conﬁguration.

The phone interface uses the Hands-Free Proﬁle (HFP) Bluetooth proﬁle for transmission. This enables the use of phone

functions via the Infotainment system and played back via the vehicle speakers.

Convenience phone interface.

Just like the basic conﬁguration of the phone interface, the Convenience phone interface uses the HFP Bluetooth proﬁle.

The Convenience phone interface can be equipped with the wireless charging function ⇒ Charging Options for Mobile

Devices. In order to use the features of the wireless charging function, you need to place a suitable cell phone correctly i

the storage compartment. Depending on the vehicle equipment and cell phone compatibility, the cell phone connects to

the vehicle antenna when you place it in the storage compartment. This improves reception and call quality.

Wireless Charging Function and Connection to the Vehicle Aerial

Depending on the vehicle equipment and model, and also in some countries, a connection to the vehicle aerials is

automatically established on the driver's side for using the wireless charging function by using the storage compartment

⇒ Charging Options for Mobile Devices. This can reduce interfering signals in the cell phone reception, if necessary. If the

reception or the quality of the conversation is not improved or there are still audible interfering signals in the mobile phone

reception, the cell phone must be positioned the other way around, with the screen facing up, in the storage compartment for

the wireless charing function for an improved connection.

Depending on the vehicle equipment and in some countries, the wireless charging function can charge several cell phones

simultaneously. In this case, the connection to the outside antenna can only be established if only the storage compartment o

the driver's side is used.
