The stereo will display a message saying that no valid files were found to play. Depending on your car model this may be in the glovebox (Mondeo), centre console (Fiesta) or armrest. Insert the USB drive into the USB port.It may say something like 1 Hour Mode on the display. Get in the car, and switch on the radio WITHOUT TURNING THE IGNITION ON.This stage will come in handy later, trust me… Make yourself a nice cup of tea or coffee and pick up a newspaper or magazine.not in a subfolder) The USB drive should NOT contain any music files, and for best results should probably be blank just in case. Unzip the files to the root folder of a USB drive.Download THIS ZIP FILE, which contains the Bluetooth firmware and voice control files in seven European languages.This can also be used for Sat Nav directions through the speakers when using Google Maps on an Android device. The update adds compatibility for Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) or Streaming Music in English. I don’t know if or how well this worked earlier, I never tried until after updating. The new version allows use of standard Apple 30pin-USB cables, with the car stereo doing the audio decoding from the digital stream. The original firmware required use of a special Y-cable, which connected to both the USB port (for control and track name display) and the 3.5mm Aux in socket (for analogue audio). The same for the Fiesta (a 2009 model) which wouldn’t connect properly to any smartphone. My phone (Sony Experia Z5) wouldn’t connect reliably and take calls properly in my 2011 Mondeo.
The level will depend on the age of your vehicle, as models later in the run will have been shipped with more up to date versions. There are several improvements to be gained from updating your Bluetooth firmware.
