Connect the car to the Internet via a
phone (Wi-Fi)
Create an Internet connection via Wi-Fi by teth-
ering your phone and access online services in
the car.
1. Make sure that your phone supports tether-
ing and that this function is activated. This
function is known as "tethering" in the
iPhone and "personal hotspot" in Android
phones. For iPhones, the menu page "tether-
ing" must also be open until the Internet
connection has been established.
2.
Press
Settings in the top view.
3. Continue to Communication Wi-Fi.
4. Activate/deactivate by ticking/unticking the
box for Wi-Fi.
5. If another connection source has been used,
confirm the option to change connection.
6. Tap on the network name of the network to
be connected.
7. Enter the network password.
> The car connects to the network.
Note that certain phones switch off tethering
after the contact with the car has been discon-
nected, e.g. when leaving the car and until the
next time it is used. The tethering in the phone
therefore needs to be reactivated the next time it
is used.
When a phone is connected to the car, it is saved
for future use. To show a list of saved networks
or manually delete saved networks, go to
Settings Communication Wi-Fi Saved
networks
.
NOTE
The telephone and network provider must
support tethering (Internet connection shar-
ing), and the subscription must include data.
Technical and safety requirements for Wi-Fi con-
nection, are described in a separate section.
