In areas where special regulations apply or
the use of mo

When the Infotainment system is switched
on, it automatically connects to the last con-
nected mobile telephone. If it is not possible
to connect to this mobile telephone, the tele-
phone management system will try to auto-
matically connect to the next mobile tele-

If the maximum number of paired devices is
reached and you wish to pair another one to
the system, it will automatically replace the
one least used recently. If you wish to replace
it with another one, the user must erase it be-
forehand. To do so:
● Press the Setup button on the device while
