Introductory information
Introductory information
Applies to Infotainment Columbus, Amundsen, Bolero
This chapter deals with the operation of Infotainment with the telephone con-
nected via Bluetooth ®
as well as the use of the SIM card in the external mod-
ule.
Depending on the Bluetooth ®
profile used, it is possible to connect to a tele-
phone or two Telephones to the device simultaneously.
The SIM card in the external module can be used for data and telephone serv-
ices (Columbus).
If telephones are connected to Infotainment with multiple SIM cards, then calls
can be accepted by all SIM cards of the connected telephones.
For outgoing calls, it depends on the type of connected telephone, either only
the primary SIM card or one of the other SIM cards can be selected.
Infotainment allows you to choose if you want to work with text messages
from the main Telephone (if this is supported by the Telephone), or work with
text messages from the SIM card inserted in the external module.
If Infotainment is connected to an external device via Apple CarPlay, then the
use of the Bluetooth ®
connection is not possible and the Telephone menu is
not available. A possible data connection via the SIM card remains operational
» page 175 .

Pair and connect
Introduction to the subject
The range of the connection to Infotainment is limited to the passenger com-
partment.
To connect a telephone with Infotainment, the two devices must be paired via
Bluetooth ®
.
The pairing process depends on the number of already connected telephones
or by using the SIM card inserted in the external module (Columbus)
» page 166 .
Depending on the Infotainment type, 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 pairing.
It is enough to find the telephone that has been paired in the list of paired tel-
ephones and make the connection.
WARNINGPair and connect a telephone to Infotainment only when the vehicle is at a
standstill - there is risk of an accident!1)
In some countries, the function may not be available.
