Mobile phone interface27
Mobile phone interfaceIntroductionA mobile phone is connected to the mobile phone interface
and operated using the multi-function steering wheel* or the
speech control system.The mobile phone interface is located either on the centre console or in the
centre armrest. A special mobile phone adapter is needed in order to connect
your mobile phone to this interface. Mobile phone adapters are available
from your Dealer or specialist retailers.
Your mobile phone is operated using the multi-function steering wheel*
⇒ page 41 or the speech control system ⇒page 31. You can also use the
talk button * on the mobile phone adapter to answer and end a call.
When your mobile phone is in the mobile phone adapter, call signals are sent
and received via the external car aerial. This ensures good transmission
quality and keeps the mobile phone battery charged.
The phone's volume can be contro lled during a call using the ⇒page 9
switch, provided that the mobile phone interface is factory-fitted.
WARNING
•
According to the health authorities, mobile phones may interfere with
the function of pacemakers. A minimum distance of 20 cm should therefore
be kept between the mobile phone aerial and the pacemaker.
−Do not carry a mobile phone in your breast pocket directly over the
pacemaker when the phone is switched on.
− If you suspect interference, switch the mobile phone off immedi-
ately.

port vehicles and other places where fumes, chemicals (e.g. from leaking
propane or fuel vapours in vehicles or buildings) or large quantities of dust
particles (e.g. from flour or wood) could accumulate in the air. This warning
also applies to all other places where you would normally switch off your
engine.Note
