While connecting the mobile phone with the hands-free system by means of Blue- tooth
®, no other phone can be connected wi
th the hands-free system via Blue-
tooth
®.
Up to three mobile phones can be connect
ed to the hands-free system by means
of Bluetooth
®, whereby only one mobile phone can communicate via Bluetooth
®
with the hands-free system. If a fourth
mobile phone is connected to the hands-
free-system, then the telephone, which has not been used together with the hands-free-system for the longest period, is
disconnected by means of Bluetooth
®.
Establish Bluetooth
® connection
After switching on the ignition, the Blue
tooth connection is
automatically estab-
lished for the already adapted mobile phone

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. The charging of the
mobile phone battery is also interrupted.

® 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
®
