Pairing a Bluetooth telephone

The services available depend on the network, the SIM card and the compatibility of the Bluetooth devices used.

Consult the telephone user guide and the service provider to check which services are available.

The Bluetooth function must be activated and the telephone configured as "Visible to all" (in the telephone settings).

To complete the pairing, whichever procedure is used (from the telephone or from the system), ensure that the code is the same in the system and in the telephone.

If the pairing procedure fails, we recommend deactivating and then reactivating the Bluetooth function on the telephone.

Using CarPlay or Android Auto

Synchronising a smartphone enables users to display applications that support the smartphone's CarPlay or Android Auto technology on the vehicle's screen. For CarPlay technology, the CarPlay function must first be activated on the smartphone.

The smartphone can be connected via USB cable or via a wireless connection.

Unlock the smartphone for the communication process between the smartphone and the system to work.

As principles and standards are constantly changing, we recommend keeping the smartphone's operating system up-to-date, together with the date and time on the smartphone and the system.

For the list of compatible smartphones, visit the Manufacturer's website in your country.

USB sockets

Depending on equipment, for more information on the USB sockets compatible with CarPlay or Android Auto applications, refer to the "Ease of use and comfort" section.

Wireless connection

Before using CarPlay or Android Auto wirelessly, ensure the Wi-Fi regulatory restrictions of your geographic location are met, as indicated by a message on the touch screen.

If the 5 GHz Wi-Fi network frequency is not allowed in your location, select 2.4 GHz at the first connection.

Check the Wi-Fi restrictions again when you travel to different locations and set the Wi-Fi frequency accordingly.

The regulations of the 5 GHz frequency are specific to each country. Refer to the regulation in force in your country.

When using CarPlay with 5 GHz frequency activated, there may be interference with certain devices (tolls, parking...) resulting in a disconnection. To prevent this from happening, it is recommended to disable the 5 GHz function.

Difficulties in connecting wirelessly your smartphone may happen, due to:

- Interference with other Wi-Fi networks.

- Interference with certain devices (tolls, parking) when using Android Auto.

- An unsuitable configuration of the smartphone.

In these cases, it is recommended to connect the smartphone with its original cable.
