Factors affecting the Internet connection.
The amount of data transmitted depends on the
services or apps currently in use in the vehicle.
Streaming music, for example, involves the trans-
mission of a large amount of data, and this
requires a good connection and a strong signal.
Phone to vehicleInternet connection speed may vary depending
on the location of the cellular phone in the vehi-
cle. Move the phone closer to the center display
to increase signal strength. Make sure that noth-
ing is between the phone and center display that
could be blocking the signal.
Phone to network operatorThe speed of the mobile network varies depend-
ing on the coverage in the vehicle's current loca-
tion. Coverage may be poorer in e.g. tunnels,
mountainous areas, deep valleys or indoors. Con-
nection speed is also dependent on the subscrip-
tion you have with your service provider.
NOTE If you experience any problems with data traf-
fic, contact your network service provider.
