VW Touareg 7P Bluetooth music streaming RNS850 retrofit package
In stock

Description
You want to stream/play music via Bluetooth from your mobile phone to your RNS850 navigation system.
Here we supply you with the additional module for retrofitting the music streaming function via the AUX-IN input in your VW Touareg 7P with RNS850 navigation system.
The additional module is installed on the navigation computer.
The control of the tracks and the display of the track names is done via the mobile phone; there is no display in the multimedia system because technically the audio signal is fed into the multimedia system via the AUX-IN input.
Would you like the full audio streaming function with display of the track names in the multimedia system and in the speedometer as well as operation on the multifunction steering wheel?
For this purpose, we recommend the retrofit package with article number: 66559. With this, no hardware installation is necessary.
Scope of delivery:
- - 1x pre-assembled cable set
- - 1x Bluetooth receiver
- - 1x installation instructions (German)
Installation time: approx. 1 hour
Product attributes:
The retrofitting of this A2DP Bluetooth interface for the transmission of audio signals is possible on all VW Touareg 7P models of all years of manufacture (pre-facelift / facelift) as well as all equipment variants with built-in RNS850 navigation system (= PR number: 7Q2 navigation system with color screen).
NOT suitable for VW Touareg 7P models with built-in radio system RCD550 without navigation system (= PR number: 7Q0). We can retrofit these models here on site upon request.
For models with a built-in MDI music interface (= PR number UF2; interface for connecting e.g. iPhone / USB sticks), this interface is no longer available after installation and coding work is necessary because the MDI music interface has to be removed and changed to AUX-IN.
The operation is carried out via the menu item "AUX" - the audio signal is fed into your RNS850 via the Bluetooth receiver, so it is not possible to display title/artist information, the operation is carried out via your mobile phone.
Installation information:
Pull out the RNS850 unit in the glove compartment.
Plug in the cable set - place the permanently connected AMPIRE Bluetooth receiver behind the RNS850 unit.
For models with an AUX-IN input already installed, no coding work is necessary. Only for models without an AUX-IN input currently installed (= input for a jack plug below the center armrest), the RNS850 is activated using the coding instructions provided.
If a CD changer is already installed, it does not need to be uninstalled. This interface is installed "in addition" to it.
Technical information about the Bluetooth receiver:
Dimensions: 6.5cm x 5cm x 2cm
Operating current: max. 40mA
Quiescent current: 0mA
Output voltage: 1V RMS
Bluetooth system: 4.0
Connecting a device:
ignition ON
Open Bluetooth menu on your phone
Search for Bluetooth receivers and connect them once
The device will beep once when the connection is successful, then your phone is permanently paired and does not need to be reconnected every time the vehicle is started
Operation:
ignition ON
Your already paired mobile phone will automatically connect
Select the source "AUX" in the RNS850
