ible application (App) or allow media to be
enabled in accordance with the UPnP (Univer-
sal Plug and Play) standard.
Conditions
● There is a compatible application (App) in-
stalled on the WLAN audio source (for exam-
ple, a Smartphone).
● The WLAN function of the WLAN audio
source and the Infotainment system are acti-
vated and a network connection has been
