Volkswagen ID.7: Bluetooth interface

In Bluetooth audio mode, audio files on a mobile device that is connected via Bluetooth, such as a cell phone, can be played through the vehicle speakers.

Controlling playback

The extent to which the mobile device can be controlled via the Infotainment system depends on the mobile device that is connected.

For mobile devices that support the AVRCP Bluetooth profile, playback can be started or stopped automatically when Bluetooth audio mode or another mobile device is selected. Depending on the mobile device, it may also be possible to display and change tracks via the Infotainment system.

In general, all warning and operation tones on connected mobile devices, such as touch tones on a cell phone, should be switched off to avoid interference and malfunctions.

Depending on the device, if a mobile device is connected to the Infotainment system via Bluetooth and the USB port at the same time, the Bluetooth audio connection may be automatically disconnected.
