System DescriptionEKS00GBL
BLUETOOTH® HANDS-FREE PHONE SYSTEM
Refer to the Owner's Manual for Bluetooth telephone system operating instructions.
NOTE:
Cellular telephones must have their wireless connection set up (paired) before using the Bluetooth telephone
system.
Bluetooth telephone system allows users who have a Bluetooth cellular telephone to make a wireless connec-
tion between their cellular telephone and the Bluetooth control unit. Hands-free cellular telephone calls can be
sent and received. Personal memos can be created using the Infinity Voice Recognition system. Some Blue-
tooth cellular telephones may not be recognized by the Bluetooth control unit. When a cellular telephone or
the Bluetooth control unit is replaced, the telephone must be paired with the Bluetooth control unit. Different
cellular telephones may have different pairing procedures. Refer to the cellular telephone operating manual.
Bluetooth Telephone System Diagram
Bluetooth Control Unit
When the ignition switch is turned to ACC or ON, the Bluetooth control unit will power up. During power up, the
Bluetooth control unit is initialized and performs various self checks. Initialization may take up to 10 seconds.
During this time the Bluetooth ON indicator will flash until initialization is complete. Infinity Voice Recognition
will then become active and the Bluetooth ON indicator will remain on. Bluetooth telephone functions can be
turned off using the voice recognition system.
BCM
The BCM supplies power for the Bluetooth ON indicator.
Steering Wheel Audio Control Switches
When buttons on the steering wheel audio control switch are pushed, the resistance in steering wheel audio
control switch circuit changes depending on which button is pushed. The Bluetooth control module uses this
signal to perform various functions while navigating through the voice recognition system.
The following functions can be performed using the steering wheel audio control switch:

Initiate Self Diagnosis of the Bluetooth telephone system

Start a voice recognition session

Answer and end telephone calls

Adjust the volume of calls

Record memos
AV S w i t c h
Call volume can be adjusted using the AV switch.
