  • Factory Satellite radio, if equipped, must be disconnected.

Built-in Bluetooth (version 4.0): The CarStream BT101AVW supports Bluetooth hands-free communication and audio streaming of your Bluetooth-enabled Apple iPod/iPhone/iPad, Android smartphone/tablet, Windows Phone, Blackberry, or other Bluetooth compatible device. The BT101AVW even supports your Bluetooth-enabled device's digital voice assistant. The included external mic/multi-function button for Bluetooth features a 39" cable that is plugged into the unit's "iPod Conn" port. The included mounting clip or self-adhesive pad can be used to mount the external mic.

  • Hands-Free Communication: The BT101AVW lets you use your vehicle's speakers and the included external microphone/multi-function button for an integrated hands-free smartphone experience. You can answer, terminate, or reject an incoming call from the external mic's multi-function button. To make an outgoing call, you must still dial from your smartphone like you would normally.
  • Wireless Music Streaming: The BT101AVW lets you stream stored music and music apps on your Bluetooth-enabled smartphone to your vehicle's factory audio system. You can also control basic music playback functions (such as Play/Pause & Previous/Next Track) through the external mic/multi-function button (no control from the radio). Song/artist information is not displayed on the factory radio via Bluetooth.
  • Activating Voice Assistant: You can activate the digital voice assistant and voice dialing on your Bluetooth-paired smartphone using the BT101AVW's multi-function button and external microphone. The BT101AVW's supports Siri for Apple iPhone 4S and newer, as well a Google Voice for select Android (4.0+) smartphones. The BT101AVW also supports the voice dialing feature found on many newer smartphones.

Note: Your Bluetooth enabled device must first be paired with the BT101AVW prior to hands-free operation. This unit may not work with all Bluetooth devices.

SiriusXM Ready: The Audiovox A-ACC-SAT-CBL cable (sold separately) is needed to add the SiriusXM Satellite Radio Tuner (220SXV300, sold separately) to the CarStream BT101AVW. The CarStream BT101AVW allows audio playback, control, and information display from your factory radio for SiriusXM Satellite Radio. A subscription is also required to receive satellite radio programming from SiriusXM.

Optional Aux Input: If you need an Aux input for your portable music device, the Satellite Radio port on the CarStream BT101AVW interface module can be converted to a stereo 3.5mm or RCA auxiliary input with the Audiovox AACC-106-AUX cable (220C106AUX, sold separately).

Optional Remote Control: The Audiovox AACC-613-RCK (220C613RCK, sold separately) is an infrared remote control kit for the CarStream BT101AVW's Satellite Radio function. The AACC-613-RCK infrared remote control kit includes an IR remote control and IR receiver.

Vehicle Harness: The included interface/vehicle harness connects to the port labeled "vehicle connection" on the BT101AVW module and the factory connector on back of your Audi or Volkswagen factory radio. If a factory harness is present, disconnect it from the factory radio and plug the CarStream BT101AVW's interface/vehicle harness in its place. Then plug your vehicle's factory harness into the cable receptacle on the BT101AVW's interface/vehicle harness.

Note: Audiovox recommends that the module be installed in an easily accessible place (not placed behind the factory radio). This allows for easier connection and disconnection of your external audio devices, as well as future firmware upgrades.

Firmware Updates: There is a mini-USB (type-B) port on one side of the CarStream interface module to connect to your computer for firmware updates.

Q
Have any other owners encountered issues with starting the unit in cold weather? Temps just dropped below 40 and the lollipop fails to activate for me now until the car has been on for ~10 and is warming up.
