Pair and connect
Introduction to the subject
The range of the connection to the hands-free system is limited to the passen-
ger compartment.
To connect a telephone with the device, the two devices must be paired via
Bluetooth ®
.
The pairing procedure is dependent on the number of telephones already con-
nected, whether using the SIM card inserted in the external module or via the
telephone using the rSAP profile » page 40, Possible connection types .
42Phone
Up to 20 external devices can be paired with the device. After reaching the
maximum number, the pairing of the next external device will replace that of
the device that has not been used for the longest period of time.
A connection with a telephone that is already paired does not require coupling. It is enough to find the telephone that has been coupled in the list of coupled
phones and make the connection.WARNINGPair and connect a telephone to the device only when the vehicle is at a
standstill - there is risk of accident!
conditions for coupling
Fig. 38
QR code with reference to the
ŠKODA websites
The telephone can be coupled with the device under the following conditions.
The ignition is switched on.
The Bluetooth ®
function of the device and the telephone is switched on.
The visibility of the device and the telephone is switched on.
The telephone is within range of the Bluetooth ®
signal of the device.
The telephone is compatible with the device.
There is no external device connected to the device using Apple CarPlay ™
.
The pairing can be initiated from the device or from the telephone.
During the pairing and connection process, information messages are dis-
played in the device screen and the telephone screen. These messages must
be observed and if necessary confirmed (e.g. enabling the contact import or
connecting the Bluetooth ®
player etc).
By reading the QR code » Fig. 38 using the associated application in the exter-
nal device (e.g. phone, tablet) or after typing the following address into the
web browser, information about the compatibility of phones and updates are
available for Bluetooth ®
device can be displayed.

Hotspot (WLAN) and data connection
Hotspot (WLAN)
Introduction to the subject
Applies to Columbus, Amundsen (not applicable to Yeti).
WLAN can be used to connect to the Internet, to playback audio files in the menu media or for operating the device using an application in the external
device (e.g. ŠKODA Media Command).
The requirement for the WLAN function is the ignition is switched on. After
switching on the ignition, the last-used WLAN connection appears.
It is possible to connect up to 8 external devices on the device hotspot and at
the same time to connect the device to the Hotspot of other external devices.
Applies to Columbus: If there is a SIM card with active data services in the ex-
ternal module, or if there a connection to the telephone via Bluetooth ®profile
RSAP, it's not possible to connect to the external device hotspot.

Introduction to the subject
The Android Auto ™
connection can be set up under the following conditions.
The ignition is switched on.
The unit is switched on.
The external device to be connected is switched on.
Some applications require the data connection in the connected external de-
vice to be turned on.
If the device is connected to an external device via Android Auto ™
then all the
phones currently connected, as well as the Bluetooth ®
Players are disconnec-
ted. The external device to be connected will automatically establish a new
telephone connection using Bluetooth ®
as a main phone. Connecting an addi-
tional telephone and using telephone services of the SIM card inserted in the
external module is not possible throughout the duration of the connection. A
possible data connection by using the SIM card inserted in the external module
remains operational » page 53.
An external device connected using Android Auto ™
cannot be used as an audio
source in the menu Media.
If route guidance is taking place at this moment in the device, then there is
the option to start the route guidance in the Android Auto ™
application. This is
also true reciprocally.
A list of devices and applications that the Android Auto ™
connection supports
can be found on the ™
Google website. Functionality is not guaranteed outside
of the supported regions.
