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.(Certain markets require the terms and conditions to be accepted for internet connection via 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.

Switching the mobile data off and on

If the car’s internet connection suddenly disappears for no apparent reason, it may help to switch mobile data off and on.

  1. Go to settings at the bottom of the center display and then tap on Connectivity.
  2. 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:

  1. Clear all previously added phones in the Bluetooth settings in the car.
  2. Restart the phone you want to connect.
  3. Try to connect the phone again.

In the event of problems with connection via the car’s built-in modem(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.

NoteIf 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.
  1. Activate tethering in your mobile phone (if you want to share the mobile phone’s Internet connection).
  2. Go to settings at the bottom of the center display and then tap on Connectivity.
  3. Tap on the row for Wi-Fi in order to show a list of available networks.
