When the ignition and radio readiness are
switched off, e.g. after removing the remote
control from the ignition lock, you can continue
an ongoing call via the hands-free system for no
more than 25 minutes.
Speech quality
If the person you are talking to cannot under-
stand you well, this may be due to excessively
loud background noises. The full mobile phone
preparation package can compensate for these
noises to a certain degree. To optimize the
speech quality during a call, we recommend
that you:
>Reduce background noises, e.g. by closing
the windows, reducing the air volume of the
automatic climate control or pointing the
front vent outlets downward
>Reduce volume of hands-free system

From mobile phone to hands-free

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.

phone

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*

having to remove your hands from the steering
wheel. When making your entries, you will be
supported by announcements and questions in
