Hi...does anyone know if the ringtone for incoming hands free calls can be changed from the default one which sounds like an ice cream van jingle !! I can't find anything in the manual that mentions how to change it, that's if it can be done at all !!

apparently some owners of VWs (and perhaps other makes) have found that since Android 8, they get their normal phone ringtone through Android Auto. (there aren't any ringtone options within AA - it just uses whatever the phone is set to use). The fact that we don't get a choice is no longer due to any limitations to Android Auto, but Kia would need to update their software to take advantage of the additional AA functionality.
