Electronic logbook.
An electronic logbook is available for
PCM as an option. It automatically logs
the mileage, route distance, date, time,
starting location and destination for ever y
journey. The soft ware fulfils all statutory
requirements for automatic logbooks as
specified by the German revenue
authorities.
Telephone module.
The quadband GSM telephone module is
available as an option for PCM and offers
convenience and excellent reception.
With a SIM card inserted directly into
PCM’s integral SIM card reader, calls
can be made using either the hands-free
facility or the cordless handset.
Alternatively, the Bluetooth
® capability
of a mobile phone can be used to make
calls through the SIM Access Profile
(SAP). Once automatic pairing is complete,
the mobile phone’s aerial is switched
off to conserve bat tery charge and the
phone operates via the car aerial.
Depending on the type of mobile phone,
this gives access not only to the numbers
on the SIM card, but also to the phone’s
internal memory. Also depending on
the phone, it can be controlled using
PCM, the multifunction steering wheel
or the voice control system without it
ever leaving your pocket. In addition,
the telephone module enables you to
establish a Bluetooth
® link with those
mobile phones that only support the
Handsfree Profile (HFP). In this case, the
GSM connection is always established
through the aerial of the mobile phone. PCM acts as a hands-free system and you
can leave the mobile phone tucked away.
Please refer to the note on page 136.
To make a private call, despite having
other passengers in the vehicle, the
telephone module includes a cordless
Bluetooth
® handset, with display and
keyboard located in the centre console.
However, the handset cannot be used
for Bluetooth
® links established using
the Handsfree Profile (HFP).
Mobile phone preparation.
An optional mobile phone preparation is
available to enable a Bluetooth
®
connection for those mobile phones that
only support the Handsfree Profile (HFP).
This function also enables you to leave
your mobile phone tucked away. The CDR
audio system and PCM can be used to
control only the basic functions of the
mobile phone and the GSM connection is
established through the mobile phone’s
aerial. Please refer to the note on
p age 13 6.
