Switching between the
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 be continued via the
hands-free system if necessary. Follow the
instructions displayed on the mobile phone dis-
play, refer to the operating instructions of your
mobile phone.
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.
Alternatively, you can deactivate the Bluetooth
link, refer to page164.

reception of the wireless communications net-
work can result in the system changing from the
hands-free system to the mobile phone.
