Retrofit OEM Bluetooth staying on after engine is switched off

Hi guys

 

I have just retro-fitted a 3C8 035 730 D Bluetooth module to my '59 Octavia vRS with Bolero stereo (with 54 firmware update) but no Maxi-Dot. After adding module 77 to the CAN gateway it pretty much worked straight off, apart from having to borrow a mate's car that has Maxi-Dot to do the pairing, but it now works fine in my car.

 

The only strange thing is that after switching the engine off, the connection drops but then the stereo now stays on for about 2 minutes with a message on screen saying 'Initialising phone' before switching itself off. Is this normal, or is there some coding that needs to be done? The drivers info display in the centre of the instrument cluster also stays on for a short time after the engine is switched off but nowhere near as long.

 

Thanks in advance.
