Connecting the car to the Internet
via a mobile device (Wi-Fi)
Create an Internet connection via Wi-Fi by shar-
ing your phone's Internet access and access
several online services in the car.
The phone and network operator must support
tethering (sharing the Internet connection) and
the subscription plan must include data.
1. Activate tethering (portable/personal hot-
spot) on the phone.
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. Tap on the network name of the network to
be connected.
6. Enter the network password.
7. If another connection source has been used
in the past - confirm the option to change
connection.
> 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. When the maximum number of
saved phones (50) is reached, the first con-
nected phones are deleted. To show a list of
saved networks or manually delete saved net-
works, go to
Settings Communication
Wi-Fi Saved networks.
Technical and safety requirements for Wi-Fi con-
nection, are described in a separate section.
