Volvo XC90: Media player / Phone
A phone equipped with Bluetooth can be wirelessly connected to the vehicle's
integrated hands-free system.
The audio and media system offers hands-free functionality for remotely controlling
a number of the phone's features. The phone's integrated controls can also be used,
even when it is connected to the vehicle.
When the phone has been paired and connected to the vehicle, it can be used as
an Internet connection or to make or receive calls, send or receive text messages
or wirelessly play music.
The phone is controlled from the center display, and the App menu (accessed using
the right-side steering wheel keypad) and voice commands can also be used to control
certain functions.
