BLUETOOTH® INFORMATION
The Jaguar Bluetoot h® system supports
Bluetooth® Hands-Fre e Profile (HFP),
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP)
and Audio Video Remote Control Profile
(AVRCP).
Note: HFP and A2DP/AVRCP profiles can be
connected independently, so a phone can be
connected via one, while a media device can be
connected via the other, at the same time.
Before making use of the vehicle’s Bluetooth
phone system, your Bl uetooth phone must be
paired and connected to the vehicle system.
This is done using one of two methods; via
your phone to the vehicl e or from the touch
screen to your phone. If one of these methods
is not successful, try the other option.
Each time the ignition is switched on the
system will attempt to connect with the last
connected phone.
As mobile phones have a wide range of audio
and echo characteristics, it may take a few
seconds for the vehicle system to adapt and
deliver optimum audio performance. To
achieve this, it may be necessary to reduce the
in-vehicle volume a nd ventilation fan speed
slightly.
TELEPHONE SAFETY
Switch off your telephone in areas
with a high explos ion risk. This
includes filling stat ions, fuel storage
areas or chemical factories, as well
as places where the air contains fuel
vapour, chemicals or metal dust. Always stow your mobile phone
securely.
The functioning of cardiac
pacemakers or hearing aids may be
impaired when the phone is in use.
Check with a doctor or manufacturer
whether any such devices you or your
passengers are using, are sufficiently
protected against high-frequency
energy.
The Health Industry Manufacturers'
Association recommends that a minimum
separation of 15 centimetres (six inches) is
maintained between a wireless phone antenna
and a pacemaker, to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by, and
recommendations of, Wi reless Technology
Research.
Bluetooth® is the name for
short-range radio frequency (RF)
technology that allows electronic
devices to communicate
wirelessly with each other.
