Tips for using Android Auto*
Here are some useful tips for when you use
Android Auto.
• Ensure that your apps are updated.
• When starting the vehicle, wait until the cen-
ter display has started, connect the device
and then open Android Auto from the app
view.
• In the event of problems with Android Auto,
unplug your Android device from the USB
port and then plug it in again. Otherwise, try
closing the app on the device and then
restarting the app.
• When a device is connected to Android Auto
it is still possible to play media via Bluetooth
to another media player. The Bluetooth func-
tion is on when Android Auto is used.
• If the Android Auto icon is grayed out, it
means that a device is no longer connected.
When you connect your device, the icon will
light up. If there is no icon at all, the vehicle
does not support connecting a device for this
purpose.
• If the device is connected to the vehicle
through Bluetooth, the connection will be
broken when Android Auto is used. Resume
Internet connection in the vehicle by tether-
ing using the device's Wi-Fi hotspot.
• A maximum of 20 Android devices can be
stored at the same time, which may be worth
484
noting if many people share the vehicle, e.g.
in a car pool. When the list is full and a new
device is connected, the oldest one will be
deleted. A factory reset must be performed
to delete the list.

Phone
A phone equipped with Bluetooth can be wire-
lessly connected to the vehicle's integrated
hands-free system.
The audio and media system offers hands-free
functionality for remotely controlling a number of
the phone's features. The phone's integrated
controls can also be used, even when it is con-
nected to the vehicle.
When the phone has been paired and connected
to the vehicle, it can be used as an Internet con-
nection or to make or receive calls, send or
receive text messages or wirelessly play music.
The phone is controlled from the center display,
and the App menu (accessed using the right-side
steering wheel keypad) and voice commands can
also be used to control certain functions.
