Internet connection
- When the car is connected to the Internet, you can listen to Internet radio and music services via apps, for example.
- The car can be connected to the Internet via a Bluetooth-connected telephone or a Wi-Fi network. For certain markets, the car can also be connected via the car’s built-in modem. If the car is connected to the internet via several different sources at the same time, the connection is first via Wi-Fi; secondly via a Bluetooth-connected phone; and lastly via the car’s built-in modem.
Problems with an Internet connection
If the car loses its Internet connection, you can try the following.
- Go to settings at the bottom of the center display and then tap on Connectivity.
- Switch Car SIM data, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth off and then back on to restart the connection.
In the event of problems with connection via Bluetooth-connected phone
If you experience difficulties when connecting a phone to the car via Bluetooth
- Check that the phone battery is sufficiently charged and that the phone is switched on.
- Check that you have Bluetooth switched on in both the phone and the car.
- Check that you have established a Bluetooth connection and have connected the car to the phone to be used.
- If possible, try to connect another phone to the car via Bluetooth in order to check whether the problem is in the device or in the car.
If the problem persists:
- Clear all previously added phones in the Bluetooth settings in the car.
- Restart the phone you want to connect.
- Try to connect the phone again.
(Connection via the built-in modem is only available in certain markets.)
If connection via the car’s built-in modem works poorly due to poor coverage, for example, try connecting via Wi-Fi networks or a Bluetooth-connected phone instead.
Note
If you connect to the Internet through several different sources at the same time, such as if the car has Internet via a built-in modem, and you access the Internet via a Bluetooth-connected phone, these sources are used in the following order of priority. Firstly, connection via Wi-Fi networks is used; secondly, via a Bluetooth-connected phone; and thirdly, via the car’s built-in modem.
Connecting to the Internet via Wi-Fi
The car can be connected to a Wi-Fi network if required.
If the car is, for example, parked outside a house with a Wi-Fi network, or if you share the Internet via a mobile phone, it is possible to connect the car to the network.
To connect the car to a Wi-Fi network, proceed as follows.
- Activate tethering in your mobile phone (if you want to share the mobile phone’s Internet connection).
- Go to settings at the bottom of the center display and then tap on Connectivity.
- Tap on the row for Wi-Fi in order to show a list of available networks.
