Alexa Built-in Quick Start Guide for Volkswagen
When you activate Alexa Built-in voice technology in your Volkswagen vehicle, you can ask to play music, place calls, listen to audiobooks, hear the news, check the weather, control smart home devices, get directions, find parking, and more—all with your voice, and all while you keep your hands on the wheel and eyes on the road. The more you talk to Alexa, the more she adapts to your personal speech patterns, vocabulary, and preferences. This tutorial will explain how to enable Alexa Auto features in your Volkswagen.
Attention: The steps below will describe how to set up Amazon Alexa in your Volkswagen vehicle. Before first usage, make sure you have registered and set up your VW ID account. You can find more information here: https://vwid.vwgroup.io/
