The Telephone menu is available when the following conditions are met: The ignition is switched on.
The Bluetooth ®
function on the device is switched on.
After the device is switched on, the system attempts to connect to the most re- cently connected phone 1)
.
If a telephone is connected to the device and the device is turned off, the connec-
tion is not dropped to the phone. The connection is lost after switching off the
ignition (for vehicles with the system KESSY after switching off the ignition and
opening the driver's door).
WARNING■ The national legal regulations for using a mobile phone in a vehicle must be
observed.■
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in a vehicle without
an external aerial or with an incorrectly installed external aerial, this can in-
crease the strength of the electromagnetic field inside the vehicle.
WARNING (Continued)■ Two-way radio systems, mobile phones or mounts must not be installed on
airbag covers or within the immediate deployment range of the airbags.■
Never leave a mobile phone on a seat in the airbag deployment area, on the
dash panel or in another area, from which it can be thrown during a sudden
braking manoeuvre, an accident or a collision - risk of injury. There are multi-
media storage compartments with lid holder to safely store these, » vehicle
Owner's Manual , chapter Practical equipment.
■
Before transport of the vehicle by air, the Bluetooth ®
function must be
switched off by a specialist company.
CAUTION
■ In areas with no signal and possibly in tunnels, garages and subways a phone
conversation can be interrupted and no phone connection can be established -
not even in an emergency!■
The range of the Bluetooth ®
connection to the hands-free system is limited to
the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local conditions, e.g. obstacles be- tween the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your phone is
in a jacket pocket, for example, this can lead to difficulties when establishing a
connection with the device or transferring data.
