Restrictions and notes
Contamination, exposure to high tempera-
tures and mechanical damage may render a data medium unusable. Observe the manu-
facturer's instructions.
Variations in the quality of data media pro-
duced by different manufacturers may lead to
anomalies during playback.
Observe copyright laws!
The unit may be unable to read individual
tracks or the entire data medium due to the
data medium configuration or the devices
and programs used for recording. Informa-
tion can be found on the internet regarding
the best ways to create audio files and data
media (compression rate, ID3 tag etc.).
Depending on the size, its condition due to
use (copy and delete processes), the folder
structure and file type, the read time of the
data media used can vary considerably.
Playlists only determine a certain playing or-
der. There are no files stored in a playlist. The
unit will not play a playlist if the files are not
on the data medium at the locations referred
to by the playlist (relative file paths).
Note
● Do not use adaptors for memory cards.
● We will not accept any responsibility for
files damaged or lost on the data medium. 15

source can be controlled via the infotainment
system depends on the Bluetooth audio
source connected.
Media players with the AVRCP Bluetooth pro-
file, the playback of the Bluetooth audio
source can be started and stopped automati-
cally when changing to Bluetooth audio
mode, or to another audio source. In addi-
tion, it is possible to view or change the track
via the infotainment system.
It is possible to connect a device as a player
and another as hands-free at the same time. Note
● Due to the large number of different Blue-
tooth audio sources available, it is not possi-
ble to guarantee fault-free operation of all
functions described here.
● Deactivate the service and warning sounds
of a connected Bluetooth audio source (for example, the key tones of the mobile phone)
to avoid interference noise and anomalies in
the operation.
● To play music, do not link the external me-
dia player simultaneously to Bluetooth and
the USB interface of the infotainment system,
as this can cause limitations during playback.
● Depending on the external player connec-
ted, the response time of the system can
vary. Changing tracks in the main menu

PHONE mode*
PHONE mode* Introduction to telephone
management The telephone functions described below can
be managed through the infotainment sys-
tem provided a mobile phone is paired and
connected to the infotainment system.
● Linking and connecting a mobile phone to
the infotainment system.
The requirement for establishing a connec-
tion between a mobile phone and the info-
tainment system is that the mobile phone
has Bluetooth ®
.
When there is no mobile phone linked to the
infotainment system, telephone manage-
ment is not available.
Please refer to the notes on how to use mo-
bile telephones in vehicles without connec-
tion to the exterior antenna ›››
Booklet In-
struction Manual, chapter Accessories and
technical modifications .WARNING
Making calls and managing the preinstalla-
tion for mobile phones while driving can dis-
tract you from the traffic and cause an acci-
dent.
● Always stay alert and drive responsibly. ●
Select volume settings that allow you to
easily hear signals from outside the vehicle
at all times (e.g. emergency service sirens).
● In areas with no or poor network coverage,
under certain circumstances in tunnels, ga-
rages and underpasses, telephone conversa-
tions may cut out or it may be impossible to
make calls, even in an emergency. WARNING
A loose or incorrectly secured mobile phone
could be thrown inside the vehicle and cause
injury in the event of sudden manoeuvres,
braking or accidents.
● While driving, the mobile phone must al-
ways be correctly secured, outside of the
working radius of the airbag. WARNING
If you carry a mobile phone that is switched
on directly over a pacemaker, this may cause
interference in its functioning.
● Between the antenna of the mobile phone
and the pacemaker there must be a minimum
distance of 20 centimetres for the mobile
phone not to affect the functioning of the
pacemaker.
● Do not carry your mobile phone in your
breast pocket, directly over the pacemaker,
when it is switched on.
● If you suspect your mobile phone is causing
interference, switch it off immediately. Note
● Telephone conversations inside the vehicle
can be affected by high speed, poor atmos-
pheric conditions and the road surface, as
well as by the quality of the network.
● The instructions that appear on the screen
related to the menu of each phone depend on
the mobile phone used. There may be differ-
ences.
● Take into account the instruction manuals
of the mobile phone and the supplier of the
accessories, and any instructions for using
the headset.
● In areas with poor coverage there may be
anomalies in the reception and calls may be
interrupted.
● Consult the compatibility list to ensure
your mobile phone will work properly.
● If you detect any strange behaviour be-
tween your mobile phone and the radio, re-
start your mobile by switching it off and on
again.
● Most electronic devices are shielded
against high-frequency radio signals. On cer-
tain occasions, nevertheless, electronic
equipment might not be protected against
the radio frequency signals of the telephone
management (Phone). This may produce in-
terference. 24

Places with special regulations Switch off the mobile phone and the prein-
stallation for mobile telephones in places
with risk of explosion. These areas are com-
mon but are not always clearly marked
››› in Introduction to telephone management on
page 24. They include, for example:
●
Ar e
as with piping and reservoirs containing
chemical products.
● Below deck, on boats and ferries.
● Near vehicles that run on liquefied gas
(such as propane or butane).
● In places where there are chemical sub-
stances or particles such as flour, dust or
metal chips in the air.
● In any other place where you must turn off
the engine of your vehicle. WARNING
Switch off your mobile phone in places with
risk of explosion! Your mobile phone will au-
tomatically connect to the mobile phone net-
work as soon as the Bluetooth connection is
cut from the mobile preinstallation. Note
In areas with special requirements and where
the use of mobile phones is prohibited, you
must keep the mobile phone and its prein-
stallation switched off at all times. The radia- tion emitted by mobile phones when switch-
ed on can cause interference in sensitive
technical and medical equipment, which
could damage this equipment or cause it to
stop working properly.
Linking and connecting your mobile
phone to the infotainment system
To operate a mobile phone through the info-
tainment system, you need to link both devi-
ces
one time only .
F or

your safety, we recommend you carry out
this connection when the vehicle is station-
ary. In some countries you cannot perform
the pairing with the vehicle running.
You must guarantee the following setup in
the mobile phone and the infotainment sys-
tem:
● The
Bluetooth ®
function must be active
and visible on the mobile phone and info-
tainment system, respectively.
● The
keypad lock of the mobile phone must
be disconnected.
● The
notification and key tones of your mo-
bile phone must be disconnected.
In some countries, after switching the igni-
tion on, the
Bluetooth ®
function of the info-
tainment system should be activated or re-
main visible for around 3 minutes. During the linking process you must enter da-
ta using your mobile phone's keypad. To do
so, you must have your mobile phone at
hand.
Once the link has been made, the schedule
and call lists stored in your mobile phone will
be loaded. The duration of the loading proc-
ess depends on the amount of data stored on
your mobile phone. When the loading proc-
ess is complete, the data will be available to
the infotainment system.
Starting the link from the system
Make sure the mobile device is active and
visible.
● Press the PHONE unit button.
● Press the function button Find .
ALTERNATIVELY: ● Press the PHONE unit button.
● Press the Setup function button.
● Press the function button Select phone and
then Find .
The search process can take up to 1 minute.
On the screen the system will dynamically
update the names of the Bluetooth devices
found. ● Select the mobile phone to which you want
to pair from the list of Bluetooth devices
found. »
