Android Auto smartphone connection
Connecting just one Android Auto smartphone
can be carried out either by USB cable or using
a wireless connection.
First install the "Android Auto"
application via "Play Store" on your
smartphone.
The "Android Auto" function requires a
compatible smartphone.
If the device fails to connect, refer to the
Android Auto website to check that the device
is compatible with this function.
If the problem persists, delete all saved
connections on the smartphone and on the
system before attempting a new connection.
To ensure an optimum wireless connection,
we recommend avoiding placing your
smartphone too close to other Wi-Fi networks
to which it can connect automatically.
The cable connection requires that you
deactivate the Android Auto wireless function,
in the Settings menu of the "Android Auto"
application of your smartphone.
Connect the smartphone to the system
using the USB socket compatible with
Mirror Screen
®.
Android Auto is automatically launched a few
seconds after the USB connection has been
established. A validation procedure on the
smartphone has to be followed for the first
connection, with the vehicle stationary.
The smartphone charges when connected by the
USB cable.
The cable connection allows you to avoid
disconnections, especially when passing through
toll booths.
Only one USB socket enables the Mirror
Screen® connection (Android Auto); refer
to the "Ease of use and comfort - Fittings"
section.
It is recommended that you use the device's
original USB cables, preferably with a short
cable to ensure optimum performance.
The wireless connection of an Android Auto
smartphone can be initiated from the " My
Devices " menu.
First activate the smartphone’s Android Auto
®
wireless function, in the Settings menu of the
"Android Auto" application of your smartphone.
Press the "Settings" application.
In the list, select the "Connectivity" tab.
Select "My Devices " to display the device
to be connected to Android Auto.
If the device has never been connected to the
system before, it will have to be paired (refer to
the "Bluetooth
® connection" section).
The system detects if the smartphone is
compatible with Android Auto and offers to
connect to it following the pairing process. If the device has already been connected to the
system via Bluetooth
®, select the device settings
from the list of known devices and choose
Android Auto as the wireless connection mode.
The subsequent automatic connection of the
smartphone requires activation of Bluetooth
® on
your device.
As soon as the connection is established, press this button to display the " Android
Auto" interface.
To initiate the smartphone voice commands, press and hold the steering-
mounted control button.

tunnels, basement car parks, etc.) may block
reception, including in RDS mode. This
phenomenon is normal in the propagation
of radio waves and does not indicate any
malfunction of the system.
Storing a radio station

press on one of these buttons, or a long

which will be replaced.

The system changes frequency automatically to
obtain better reception.
Press the "Media" application.
In the list, select the "Settings” tab.
Activate “Radio Station Tracking”.
The lighting of the slider confirms that the
function is activated.
Changing the waveband
Press the "Media" application.
In the list, select the "Player" tab.
Press this button to change the waveband
(FM - AM - DAB) according to the country
of sale.
Activating traffic announcements
This function gives priority to listening to Traffic
announcements alert messages. To be active,
this function needs good reception of a radio
station that transmits this type of message.
While traffic information is being broadcast, the
current radio station is automatically interrupted
so that the message can be heard. Normal radio
listening resumes as soon as the message is
finished.
Press the "Media" application.
In the list, select the "Settings” tab.
Activate “Traffic Announcement (TA)”.
The lighting of the slider confirms that the
function is activated.

the audio stream coming from the smartphone(s)
connected via Bluetooth
®, USB (iPod® type) or
Mirror Screen®.

Vehicle data recording and privacy
Vehicle data recording
and privacy
Electronic control units are installed in your
vehicle. These control units process data
received from the vehicle's sensors, for example,
or data they generate themselves or exchange
with each other. Some of these control units are
required for the correct operation of your vehicle,
some others assist you while driving (driving or
manoeuvring aids), while others provide comfort
or infotainment functions.
The following contains general information about
how data is processed within the vehicle.
You will find additional information about the
specific data which is downloaded, stored
and transmitted to third parties and what it is
used for in your vehicle under the keyword
"Data protection". This information is directly
associated with the references for the functions
in question contained in the corresponding
vehicle handbook, or in the general terms and
conditions of sale.
This information is also available online.
Vehicle operating data
The control units process the data used for the
operation of the vehicle.
This data includes, for example:
–
Information about the state of the vehicle
(e.g.

speed, travel time, lateral acceleration,
wheel rotation rate, fastened seat belts display). –

Environmental conditions (e.g.
temperature,
rain sensor, distance sensor).
As a general rule, this data is temporary, is
not stored for longer than one operating cycle
and is only used within the vehicle itself. The
control units often record this data (including the
vehicle's key). This function allows either the
temporary or permanent storage of information
about the state of the vehicle, stresses on
components, servicing requirements, as well as
events and technical errors.
Depending on the vehicle's equipment level, the
data stored is as follows:
–
Operating state of system components
(e.g.
filling level, tyre pressures, battery charge
status).
–
Faults and malfunctions in important system
components (e.g.
lamps, brakes).
–
System reactions in specific driving situations
(e.g.
deployment of an airbag, triggering of
stability control and braking systems).
–
Information about events which have
damaged the vehicle.
–

For electric and rechargeable hybrid vehicles,
the traction battery charge level and the
estimated driving range.
In particular circumstances (e.g.
if the vehicle
has detected a malfunction), it may be necessary
to record data which would otherwise simply not
be stored.
When taking your vehicle in for servicing
(e.g.
repairs, maintenance), the stored operating
data may be read along with the vehicle's identification number and used if necessary.
The personnel working for the servicing network
(e.g.
garages, manufacturers) or third parties
(e.g. roadside assistance agents) may read
the vehicle's data. This also applies to work
carried out under warranty and quality assurance
measures.
This data is generally read via the OBD
(On-Board Diagnostics) port fitted by law to
the vehicle. It is used to report on the technical
state of the vehicle or its components and
facilitates the diagnosis of malfunctions, in
compliance with warranty obligations and for
quality improvement. This data, in particular the
information relating to stress on components,
technical events, operator errors and other
malfunctions, is sent to the Manufacturer, if
necessary, along with the vehicle's identification
number. The Manufacturer's liability may also be
engaged. The Manufacturer may also use the
operating data taken from the vehicle for product
recalls. This data may also be used to check the
customer's warranty and any claims made under
warranty.
Any malfunctions stored in the vehicle may be
reset by an after-sales service company during
servicing or repair work, or at your request.

269

Data regarding the use of online services.
This data for the comfort and infotainment
functions may be stored locally in the vehicle
or saved to a device that you have connected
to the vehicle (e.g.

smartphone, USB memory
stick or MP3 player). Data that you have entered
yourself may be deleted at any time.
This data may also be transmitted outside the
vehicle at your request, particularly when using online services in line with the settings that you
have selected. Smartphone integration
(e.g.

Android
Auto
® or
Apple
®CarPlay®)
If your vehicle is equipped accordingly, you can
connect your smartphone or another mobile
device to the vehicle in order to operate it using
the vehicle's integrated controls. Images and
sounds from the smartphone can be transmitted
through the audio and telematics system.
Specific information is simultaneously sent
to your smartphone. Depending on the type
of
integration, this includes data such as location,
day/night mode and other general information
about the vehicle. For more information, please
refer to the user instructions for the vehicle or the
audio and telematics system.
Integrating a smartphone allows you to use
its applications, such as a navigation app or
music player. No other
integration between
the smartphone and the vehicle is possible, in
particular active access to vehicle data. How the
data is processed subsequently is determined
by the supplier of the application being used.
The ability the change settings depends on the
application in question and on the operating
system installed on your smartphone.
Online services
If your vehicle is connected to a wireless
network, data can be exchanged between
your vehicle and other systems. Connection
to a wireless network is made possible
via a
transmitter located in your vehicle or a mobile
device that you have provided (e.g.

smartphone).
The online services can be used via this wireless
connection.

These include online services and
applications (apps) provided to you by the
Manufacturer or other suppliers.
Exclusive services
As regards the Manufacturer's online services,
the corresponding functions are described by
the Manufacturer in an appropriate medium
(e.g.
handbook, Manufacturer's website) and the
information about data protection is provided.
Personal data may be used for online services.
The exchange of data for this purpose takes
place over a secure connection, using for
example the Manufacturer's dedicated computer
systems. The collection, processing and use of
personal data for the development of services
are carried out solely on the basis of a legal
authorisation, for example in the case of a
legal emergency call system or a contractual
agreement or else under a consent agreement.
You can activate or deactivate the services and
functions (some may be chargeable) and, in
some cases, the vehicle's entire connection to
the wireless network. This does not include the
