TELEPHONE PROVISION
(fig. 137)
If the voice kit is installed on the car, when
a phone call is received the radio sound is
connected to the phone input. The telephone
sound is heard with a fixed volume, but it
can be adjusted during the conversation us-
ing “VOL+” (21) to higher the volume or
“VOL-” (19) to lower it.
The fixed telephone volume can be ad-
justed through the “PHONE” function of
the menu (see“MENU” paragraph). The only buttons active during phone calls
are:
– “VOL+” (21), “VOL-” (19): for
volume adjustment
– “ON” (20): turning the radio on/off
– “AF-TA” (1): traffic information.
While the sound is off for a phone call, the
display shows the word “PHONE”.
The sound of the phone call will be inter-
rupted in the case of transmission of a traf-
fic bulletin or a PTY31 announcement; if
wishing to interrupt the bulletin press the
“AF-TA” button (1).

the display.
The FM band is divided into section: FM1,

tostore function.
