Note
External audio sources connected to the AUX socket of the MEDIA-IN interface
can be played through the radio and navigation system, but cannot be
controlled from there. To control the external audio source, please see the
manufacturer's instructions. As long as the external audio source is not
switched off, it will continue operating even if another source starts to play in
the radio and navigation system.
Note
The MDI symbol remains visible and on (highlighted in red), and therefore
accessible, as long as the “Activate AUX2 input” check box (Media setup

Telephone control (Phone)IntroductionIntroductionThe telephone functions described below can be controlled from the radio
and navigation system provided there is a mobile phone switched on and
connected to the radio and navigation system.
The connection will depend on the appliance.•Link and connect a mobile phone to the radio and navigation system
⇒ page 77.•Link and connect a mobile phone through the instrument panel.
For the connection between the mobile phone and the radio and navigation
system, the mobile phone must have Bluetooth
®.
If no mobile phone is connected to the radio and navigation system, tele-
phone control will not be available.
Please observe instructions concerning the use of mobile phones in vehicles
without an external aerial ⇒page 76.
WARNING
Telephone calls and the use of the mobile phone pre-installation while
driving may distract the driver from the road and result in accident.•You should always drive with due care and attention.•Select volume settings that allow you to easily hear signals from
outside the vehicle at all times, e.g. emergency service sirens.•Your call may be cut off or you may be unable to make calls if you are in
an area with no mobile phone network coverage, an area where the network is very weak or, in some cases, in a tunnel, garage or underpass.
This also means that no emergency calls can be made.
WARNING
If your mobile phone is loose and is not securely fastened, it could be
thrown around the vehicle interior in the event of sudden braking, sharp
movements or accident and cause injury to passengers.•While the vehicle is in motion, always secure the mobile phone prop-
erly outside the airbag deployment zone.WARNING
Mobile phones may affect the operation of pacemakers. Always maintain a
suitable distance between the phone and the pacemaker.•Maintain a gap of roughly 20 centimetres between the aerials of the
mobile phone and the pacemaker, as mobile phones may affect the func-
tioning of pacemakers.•Do not keep mobile phones in breast pockets directly above pace-
makers.•Switch off the mobile phone immediately if you suspect there may be
interference.WARNING
An unfolded armrest may restrict the driver's movements causing a serious
accident.•While driving, the armrest should always be closed.WARNING (continued)

CautionHigh speeds, poor weather or road conditions and the quality of reception
can all affect the quality of a telephone conversation in the vehicle.
Note
The instructions shown on the screen for each telephone menu will depend
on the mobile phone used. There may be variations.
Note
The SOS or emergency call function is not displayed on all appliances and is
not available in all countries even through the mobile phone operator.
Note
Please observe instructions for the use of the mobile phone and phone acces-
sories, together with instructions referring to the use of headphones.
Note
You may experience problems with reception or your call may be cut off in
areas without network coverage.
Note
Most electronic devices are shielded against high-frequency signals.
However, some electronic devices may not be shielded against radio
frequency signals from the telephone. This could lead to malfunction.
Areas with special regulationsSwitch off the mobile phone and the pre-installation in areas with a high risk
of explosion. These areas are usually marked, although not always clearly
⇒ in “Introduction” on page 75. For example:•In the vicinity of chemical pipelines and tanks•Below deck on board ships and ferries.•In the proximity of vehicles that run on liquid gas (such as propane or
butane)•Areas with chemical products or particles in the air, such as flour, dust or
metal powder.•Any area in which the car engine must be switched off.WARNING
Switch off your mobile phone in areas with a high risk of explosion! The
mobile phone can be automatically reconnected to the mobile phone
network if the Bluetooth connection is switched off for the pre-installation.
Caution
Always switch off your mobile phone and the pre-installation in restricted
areas or areas where the use of mobile phones is not permitted. Radiation
from a mobile phone which is switched on may interfere with sensitive tech-
nical or medical equipment, resulting in malfunction or damage to this
equipment.Using a mobile phone in the vehicleMobile phones send and receive radio waves, both during a call and while on
stand-by. Some scientific studies claim that radio waves above certain values
MediaSystem2.1_EN.book Seite 76 Donnerstag, 29. April 2010 4:18 16
Telephone control (Phone)77
may be harmful to the human body. The authorities and international commit-
tees have defined limits and directives to ensure that electromagnetic radia-
tion from mobile telephones remains within limits which are not harmful to
human health. Nevertheless, there is no conclusive scientific evidence that
wireless telephones are totally safe.
Therefore, some experts recommend moderate use of mobile phones until
the results of further research currently underway are published.Link and connect the mobile phone to a radio and navigation system
To use a mobile phone via the radio and navigation system, it is necessary to
establish a connection between both units once.
The mobile phone can be connected to the radio and navigation system in
two ways:•active connection•passive connection
With the active connection, the search for the unit is started using the radio
and navigation system . With the passive connection, the search for the unit
is started using the mobile phone . The following settings in the mobile phone
and in the radio and navigation system are required for both types of connec-
tion:•The Bluetooth
® function must be on or visible in the mobile phone and in
the radio and navigation system.
•The mobile phone keypad must be unlocked.•The mobile phone notification and keypad tones should be switched off.
It will be necessary to enter information using the telephone keypad during
the connection process. Therefore, the mobile phone should be to hand.

Connection of more than one mobile phone
A maximum of four mobile phones can be connected to the radio and naviga-
tion system. When the radio and navigation system is switched on, it auto-
matically connects to the last connected mobile phone. If it is not possible to
connect to this mobile phone, the system will try to automatically connect to
the next mobile phone on the list of connected units.
If there are already four phones connected and you wish to connect an addi-
tional phone, it will be necessary to delete one of the phones from the list of
units connected.•Press the unit button.•Press the function button

connected units. It will now be possible to start a new connection to another
mobile phone.Note
For safety reasons, Bluetooth visibility in the radio and navigation system is
limited to exactly five minutes.
Note
The Bluetooth connection has a maximum range of 10 metres. An existing
Bluetooth connection will be disconnected if the distance between the connected units is greater than this. The connection is
automatically
resumed when the units are back within the range.
