Volvo XC90: Media player / Tips for using Android Auto
(Option/accessory.)
Here are some useful tips for when you use Android Auto1.
- Ensure that your apps are updated.
- When starting the vehicle, wait until the center display has started, connect
the device and then open Android Auto from the app view.
- In the event of problems with Android Auto, unplug your Android device from
the USB port and then plug it in again. Otherwise, try closing the app on the
device and then restarting the app.
- When a device is connected to Android Auto it is still possible to play
media via Bluetooth to another media player. The Bluetooth function is on when
Android Auto is used.
- If the Android Auto icon is grayed out, it means that a device is no longer
connected. When you connect your device, the icon will light up. If there is
no icon at all, the vehicle does not support connecting a device for this purpose.
- If the device is connected to the vehicle through Bluetooth, the connection
will be broken when Android Auto is used. Resume Internet connection in the
vehicle by tethering using the device's Wi-Fi hotspot.
