Hotspot (WLAN)
Introduction to the subject
Applies to Infotainment Columbus, Amundsen.
WLAN can be used to connect to the Internet, to playback audio files in the menu media (if the connected external device allows this) or for operating the
device using an application in the external device (e.g. ŠKODA Media Command).
The requirement for the WLAN function is that the ignition is switched on. Af-
ter switching on the ignition, the last-used WLAN connection appears.
It is possible to connect up to 8 external devices to the Infotainment hotspot
and at the same time to connect Infotainment to the hotspot of other external
devices.
If there is a SIM card with activated data services in the external module of In-
fotainment Columbus or there is a connection to the phone via Bluetooth ®
profile RSAP, a connection cannot be established to the external device hot-
spot.

Fig. 195
Information on SmartLink on the
ŠKODA websites
Read in the QR code » Fig. 195orenter the following address in the web brows-
er to open the website with information on the SmartLink system.
http://go.skoda.eu/connectivity-smartlink
SmartLink offers the option to display certified applications on an external de-
vice equipped with a USB device on the Infotainment screen and to operate
them.
SmartLink supports the following communication systems. ▶ Android Auto
▶ Apple CarPlay
▶ MirrorLink ®
Using the applications in the connected external device, you can use naviga-
tion to make a call and to listen to music.
For reasons of safety, the operation of some applications while driving is not
possible or only limited.
Depending on the model of the connected external device, some applications
can be started using voice activation, via the Infotainment screen, using the
operating elements on Infotainment, or using the buttons on the multi-func-
tion steering wheel.
The voice control of the connected external device can be activated by holding
the button 
or holding the button
 on the multifunction steering wheel.
CAUTIONTo establish the connection, it is necessary that the date and time in Infotain-
ment are set correctly. If the date and time setting is based on the GPS signal,
then problems may arise with establishing a connection with a poor GPS signal
reception.
Note
■ During the connection process, information messages may be displayed on
the Infotainment screen, and in the phone display. These messages must be
observed and confirmed if necessary (e.g. Release of data transfer, enabling
the contact import, release of text messages).■
We recommend that you use extension cords from ŠKODA Original Accesso-
ries.
■
With some connected devices, it is necessary that the connected external
device is unlocked over the entire duration of the connection for trouble-free
functioning of the SmartLink function“”.
