electromagnetic field strength and, accordingly, in the electromagnetic radiation to which passengers are exposed. If a cradle is used to mount
the mobile phone, the field strength in the passenger compartment can be reduced because the phone can be connected up to the external
aerial (feature depends on how specific mobile phones connect to the cradle). For information about the availabilit y of a cradle for your mobile
phone, please contact your Porsche Centre. The use of the telephone module for PCM via Bluetooth
® SAP connection or with inserted SIM card
prevents exposure to electromagnetic radiation as only the car’s external aerial is ever used.
