Universal telephone preinstallation with voice
control*
The voice control is activated according to equipment installed on the vehicle by pressing the button PTT (push to talk) on the adapter ⇒fig. 101 or the button on the multi-functional module* ⇒page 100.
A phone phonebook is part of the mobile ph one preinstallation with voice control. In the phone phonebook there are 1500 free memory locations available. This phone phonebook can be used in line with the mobile telephone.
For vehicles fitted with multi-functional module*, the operation is performed via the function buttons on the module ⇒page 100.
Furthermore the volume can be changed indi vidually at any time with the button for setting the radio or on vehicles fitted with multi-functional module* with func- tion buttons on the steering wheel.
If the system answers with the voice response “ Telephone is not ready”, please check the operating state of the telephone as follows:
•Is the telephone switched on?
•Is the PIN code entered?
Dialogue
The period, in which the telephone system is ready to receive voice commands and carry out the voice commands, is called DIALOGUE. The system gives audible feed-
back and guides you if necessary through the relevant functions. You can start or end the dialogue at any time by pressi ng the PTT button. You can also end the dialogue with the voice command CANCEL.
The dialogue is always automatically ended after carrying out an operation, e.g. after erasing the name from the phonebook.
The dialogue of the incoming call is im mediately interrupted and you can accept the call by pressing the button .
If a voice command is not detected, the system answers with “ Sorry?” and a new entry can be performed. After the 3rd error the answer “ Cancel” is given and the dialogue is ended.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on the following factors:
•Speak with a normal tone of voice without intonation and excessive voice pauses.
•Avoid insufficient articulation.
•Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, in order to reduce or stop disturbing exterior noise.
•It is recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the tone of your voice is louder than the increased surrounding noise.
•During the dialogue avoid additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. simultaneously talking occupants.
•Do not speak, if the system makes an announcement.
•The microphone for voice control is direct ed to the driver and front passenger. Therefore the driver and the front passenger can operate the equipment.
WARNING
Pay attention primarily to the traffic situation! As the driver you are fully responsible for the traffic safety. Use the telephone system only to such an extent, so that you are in full control of your vehicle at any time.

In the modern business worl d as well as within the private sector the mobile communication gains increasingly on impo rtance. Mobile phones from different manufacturers can be connected with the hands-free system by means of Blue- tooth. During the connecting procedure, no other mobile phone may be connected via Bluetooth with the hands-free system.
Up to four mobile phones can be connected to the hands-free system by means of Bluetooth, whereby only one mobile ph one can communicate via Bluetooth with the hands-free system. If a fifth mobile phone is connected to the handsfree- system, then the telephone, which has been used together with the handsfree system for the shortest period, is disconnected.
Establishing the Bluetooth connection
After switching on the ignition, the Blue tooth connection is automatically estab- lished for the already adapted mobile phone 3). You can hear an increasing tone sequence from the loudspeakers of the vehicle.
Disconnecting the Bluetooth connection
After withdrawing the ignition key, the Bluetooth connection is disonnected. You can hear an increasing tone sequence from the loudspeakers of the vehicle.
WARNING
•Pay attention primarily to the traffic situation! As the driver you are fully responsible for the traffic safety. Use the telephone system only to such an extent, so that you are in full control of your vehicle at any time - risk of acci- dent!
•In the event of air transport, the Bluetooth function of the handsfree- system must be switched off by a specialist garage.
Caution
Taking the mobile phone out of the adapter during the call can lead to interruption of the connection. When taking out the mobile phone, the connection to the factory-fitted antenna is interrupted, this reduces the quality of the transmitting and receiving signal. This might result additionally in harmful radiation from the mobile phone in the interior of the ve hicle and the charging of the telephone battery is interrupted.
Note
•Not valid for all mobile phones which enable a communication via Bluetooth.
•Please operate your mobile phone exclusively with a suitable adapter, in order to keep a low radiation in the vehicle.
•Inserting the mobile phone into the adapter ensures an optimal sending and receiving power and offers at the same ti me the advantage of the battery charging.
•If you insert the mobile telephone into the adapter, the connection is estab- lished via the interface in the adapter set and the Bluetooth connection is discon-nected. You can hear an increasing tone sequence from the loudspeakers of the vehicle.
•Note that the range of the Bluetooth connection to the handsfree-system is limited to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obstacles between the devices and interferences with other devices. If your mobile phone is e.g. in a jacket pocket, this can lead to difficulties when establishing the Bluetooth connection with the handsfree-sy stem or the data transfer.
•If you have set the Portuguese language in the information display, it is used automatically for the mobile phone operatio n, as this is the language, which was entered during coding of the handsfree-system.
•On certain mobile phones with operating system, it is necessary to install on the mobile phone an application of the mobi le phone manufacturer, which enables the take-over of the phone phonebook via Bluetooth.
