If pairing via the mobile phone interface or the Radio/Media menu should fail, pairing can also be performed in the menu  
Network Mobile devices.

Network Mobile devices.  
2. In the factory settings, both Bluetooth and visibility are always activated. If Bluetooth is disabled, tap  
and activate Bluetooth  
and Visibility.  
3. Open the list of available Bluetooth devices on the mobile telephone and select the Bluetooth device name of 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.  
4. Observe the messages on the mobile telephone and Infotainment system and confirm as necessary.  
If pairing was successful, the data of the mobile telephone will be stored in the user profile.  
5. Optional: confirm message for data transfer on the mobile telephone.  
As a general rule, it is only necessary to pair a mobile telephone once. The mobile telephone connection to the Infotainment  
system via Bluetooth can be restored at any time without having to pair the mobile telephone again.  
The extent to which the Infotainment system can be used to control the mobile telephone connected via Bluetooth depends  
on the respective mobile device.  
You can find more detailed information on using a mobile device via a Bluetooth connection in this owner’s manual .  
Always switch off the warning and service tones on a connected mobile telephone, e.g. key tones, to prevent interference  
noise and malfunctions.  
Two options are available for using the internet in the vehicle.  
Via the hotspot of a mobile device, e.g. mobile telephone.  
Via the vehicle's eSIM (→ Wi-Fi).  
The types of internet connections possible are dependent on the country and equipment and the Infotainment system used.  
Depending on your mobile telephone tariff, using the hotspot of a mobile device may incur additional costs, e.g. roaming charges, for  
loading and using data packages from the internet, especially if you use these services abroad. Due to the potentially high volume of  
data in use, Volkswagen recommends using a mobile device tariff which includes a data flat rate. For more information contact your  
mobile telephone provider.  
If the eSIM is used, you must purchase data plans via the web shop of Volkswagen’s external mobile communications partner. However,  
you do not need any data plans of the external mobile communications partner in order to use the mobile online services of  
Volkswagen AG. This requires a contract for use of the mobile online services, which may be subject to a charge.  
Irrespective of how you establish the internet connection, whether via the hotspot of a mobile device or via the vehicle’s eSIM, you can  
use the Infotainment system as a Wi-Fi® hotspot for eight further mobile devices (→ Wi-Fi). This function is dependent on the  
equipment level and is not available in all vehicles.
