Controlling playback

fotainment system depends on the Bluetooth audio source connected.

tooth audio source can be started and stopped automatically when chang-
ing to Bluetooth audio mode, or to another audio source. In addition, it is
possible to view or change the track via the infotainment system.
Note
Due to the large number of different Bluetooth audio sources available, it is
not possible to guarantee fault-free operation of all functions described
here.

Deactivate the service and warning sounds of a connected Bluetooth au-
dio source (for example, the key tones of the mobile phone) to avoid inter-
ference noise and anomalies in the operation.
●
Depending on the external player connected, the response time of the
system can vary.

To ensure your BT player works correctly, check the compatibility lists
first.
