Media via Bluetooth

The car's media player is equipped with
Bluetooth and can wirelessly play audio files
from external Bluetooth devices, such as mobile
phones and tablets.
For the media player to be able to play back
audio files wirelessly from an external device, the
device must first be connected to the car via
Bluetooth.

Media via USB port

An external audio source, e.g. an iPod® or MP3
player, can be connected to the audio system via
the car's USB port.
Devices with rechargeable batteries are
recharged when connected via USB and the igni-
tion is in position I, II or the engine is running.
The content of the external source can be loaded
more quickly if it only consists of compatible for-
mats. Video files can also be played back via the
USB port.
Certain MP3 players have their own file system
that the car does not support.
