Android Auto
Introduction to the subject
The Android Autoconnection can be set up under the following conditions. The ignition is switched on.
Infotainment 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 Infotainment connected to an external device via Android Auto then all the
telephones currently connected, as well as the Bluetooth ®
Players are discon-
nected.
The external device to be connected will automatically establish a new tele-
phone connection via Bluetooth ®
as a main telephone. Connecting an addition-
al telephone using the telephone services of the SIM card inserted in the ex-
ternal module is not possible over the duration of the connection. A possible
data connection using the SIM card inserted in the external module remains
operational » page 175.
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 Infotainment, then there is
the option to start the route guidance in the Android Auto application. This is
also true reciprocally.
A list of external devices, regions and applications that the Android Autocon-
nection supports can be found on the Google website. Functionality is not
guaranteed outside of the supported regions.
