Changing between mobile
phone and hands-free system
From mobile phone to hands-free
system
You can continue calls begun outside the Blue-
tooth range of the vehicle via the hands-free
system when the motor is running or the igni-
tion is switched on. Depending on your mobile
phone, the system automatically changes over
to the hands-free mode.For mobile phones that do not automatically
change over to the hands-free mode:
>Depending on the mobile phone model
used, the conversation can also be contin-
ued via the hands-free system if necessary.
Act according to what is shown on the
mobile phone display, refer to the operating
instructions of your mobile phone.
>Press the button above the storage
compartment. Changing over may take sev-
eral seconds.
From hands-free system to mobile
phone
When you telephone via the hands-free system,
you can also continue the call via the mobile
phone if necessary, depending on the mobile
phone model. Act according to what is shown
on the mobile phone display, refer to the oper-
ating instructions of your mobile phone.
Depending on your mobile phone model, poor
reception of the wireless communications net-
work can result in the system changing from the
hands-free system to the mobile phone.
Operation by voice*
The concept
You can operate your mobile phone without
having to remove your hands from the steering
wheel. When making your entries, you will be
supported by announcements and questions in
many cases.
The same prerequisites as for operation via
iDrive apply, refer to page187.
