Telephone control (Phone)
Telephone control (Phone) Introduction
Introduction
The telephone functions described below may be controlled using the radio
and navigation system, and by voice control, provided that there is a mobile
phone switched on and with the BT function on. In addition, the mobile
must be connected and paired via Bluetooth to the radio and navigation
system.
For the connection between the mobile phone and the radio and navigation
system, the mobile phone must have Bluetooth®
and it must be activated.
If no mobile phone is connected to the radio and navigation system, tele-
phone control from the navigator and voice control will not be available.
● Pair and connect the mobile phone to the radio and navigation system
⇒ page 80.
When the mobile phone has been paired with the navigation system, the
phone can be controlled via the navigation system and the multifunction
controls on the steering wheel using the vehicle instrument panel. Func-
tions available include making calls in hands-free mode, access to the mo-
bile phone book, access to the list of calls received, missed and recently di-
alled, and control of these functions using the voice recognition system.
The hands-free device means that the telephone can be used inside the ve-
hicle; the driver will not have to remove their hands from the steering wheel
nor will be distracted from traffic.
Please observe instructions concerning the use of mobile phones in vehi-
cles without an external aerial ⇒ page 79.
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 out-
side 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. 

78Telephone control (Phone)
WARNING (Continued)
● Do not keep mobile phones in breast pockets directly above pacemak-
ers.
● 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 seri-
ous accident.
● While driving, the armrest should always be closed.
CAUTION
High 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 ac-
cessories, 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. How-
ever, some electronic devices may not be shielded against radio frequency
signals from the telephone. This could lead to malfunction.
Note
The voice control system is only available in the following languages: Span-
ish, German, English, French, Italian, Portuguese, Czech, Russian and
Dutch. For other languages, the predefined language for the voice control
system will depend on the country in which the vehicle is sold. Please ask
the Technical Service to change the predefined language if required. 
Areas with special regulations
Switch 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 77. 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 net-
work if the Bluetooth connection is switched off for the pre-installation. 

80Telephone control (Phone)
Only use your mobile phone inside the vehicle if it is connected to a hands-
free system with an exterior aerial.
WARNING
A loose or incorrectly attached phone 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
If you use mobile phones or two-way radios in the car without connection
to an external aerial, electromagnetic radiation in the vehicle could ex-
ceed limit values. This also may occur to external aerials that have not
been correctly installed.
● Maintain a distance of at least 20 centimetres between mobile phone
aerials and pacemakers, as mobile phones may have a negative effect on
pacemakers.
● Mobile phones must not be carried in shirt pockets, directly over the
pacemaker.
● If you suspect interference, switch off the telephone immediately.

navigation system

which you can set the automatic audio volume reduction applied when the
parking distance warning system is active. When reverse gear is engaged,
the volume of the radio and navigation system is lowered to make manoeu-
vring easier and so that acoustic warning are audible. If the maximum start-up volume is set very low, the navigation system an-
nouncements will also be lowered to this level. This may mean that the vol-
ume of the navigation system requires turning up each time the unit is
switched on.
Functional description of speed-dependent volume adjustment (GALA)
The speed dependent volume adjustment automatically increases the vol-
ume as the vehicle speed increases.
The degree to which the volume increases with speed is adjusted on a scale
between 1 and 7.
If a low value is set, the volume rises only slightly as the speed of the vehi-
cle increases. At a high setting the volume is increased more. At
0 speed-
dependent volume control is switched off (display: Off).
