Streaming audio

The vehicle's media player is equipped with Bluetooth and can play streaming audio files from a Bluetooth device such as a cell phone or personal digital assistant (PDA). Navigation and control of the device can be done through the vehicle's center console control panel or the steering wheel keypad. On certain external devices, it is also possible to change tracks from the device.

In order to listen streaming audio, the vehicle's media player must first be put in Bluetooth mode. To do so, Press MEDIA several times until Bluetooth is displayed. Release the button and wait several seconds or press OK/ MENU.

Choices can be made in the Bluetooth menus from the center console control panel or the steering wheel keypad. See page 244 for additional information about navigating the various menus.

NOTE

Any Bluetooth media players used must support Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP) and Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP). The player must use AVRCP version 1.3 and A2DP 1.2. If older versions of these standards are used, certain features (e.g., scan or random) may not function.

Not all cell phones or media players are fully compatible with the vehicle's Bluetooth system. A list of compatible devices is available at you Volvo retailer or at www.volvocars. us.

The vehicle's media player can only play audio files through the Bluetooth function.
