Privacy

Note
For some phones, the Bluetooth volume on the phone must be manually set to 100% in order for the audio volume in the vehicle to be high enough. This setting needs to be made for each phone that is connected. The setting is adjusted separately for phone calls and media streaming. The system will then remember the setting and it will not need to be repeated the next time the phone is connected.
