Transmitted vehicle data
When using Android Auto, specific vehicle data
is transmitted to the mobile phone. This makes
it possible to use selected mobile phone serv-
ices efficiently. The mobile phone does not have
active access to vehicle data. The following system information is transmitted:
RMultimedia system software version
RSystem ID (anonymous)
These data are transmitted in order to optimize communication between the vehicle and mobile
phone.
A random vehicle code is generated for this pur-
pose and in order to assign multiple vehicles to
the mobile phone.
This code is not related to the vehicle identifi-
cation number (VIN) and is deleted if the multi-
media system is reset (
Ypage 43).
The following driving status data is transmitted:
RGear position engaged
RDifference between parked, stationary,
coasting and driving
RInstrument cluster day/night mode
These data are transmitted in order to adapt the
content displayed to the driving situation.
The following position data is transmitted:
RCoordinates
RSpeed
RCompass direction
RAcceleration direction
These data are transmitted only when naviga-
tion is active in order to improve navigation (e.g.
when driving through a tunnel).

Playback options
General information
If the Bluetooth®audio device supports the cor-
responding function, the following options are
available:
RNormal Track Sequence: the tracks are
played in the normal order (e.g. track 1, 2, 3
etc.).
Audio data playback is determined by the
order in which the tracks are written to the
data medium. Alphabetical order is the most
common. Once all the tracks in a folder have
been played, the tracks in the next folder are played.
RRandomTrackList: the current track list is
played in random order (e.g. 3, 8, 5 etc.).
RRandom Medium: all tracks on the data
medium are played in random order (e.g.
track 3, 8, 5 etc.).
Playback options are optional functions and
are not, or only partially, supported by Blue-
tooth
®audio devices.
