Telephone management (PHONE)
WARNING
Making calls and managing the preinstalla-
tion for mobile phones while driving can
distract you from the traffic and cause an ac-
cident.
● Always stay alert and drive responsibly.
● Select volume settings that allow you to
easily hear signals from outside the vehicle
at all times (e.g. emergency service sirens).
● In areas with no or poor network coverage,
under certain circumstances in tunnels, ga-
rages and underpasses, telephone conversa-
tions may cut out or it may be impossible to
make calls, even in an emergency. WARNING
A loose or incorrectly secured mobile phone
could be thrown inside the vehicle and cause
injury in the event of sudden manoeuvres,
braking or accidents.
● While driving, the mobile phone must al-
ways be correctly secured, outside of the
working radius of the airbag. WARNING
If you carry a mobile phone that is switched
on directly over a pacemaker, this may cause
interference in its functioning.
● Between the antenna of the mobile phone
and the pacemaker there must be a minimum
distance of 20 centimetres for the mobile phone not to affect the functioning of the
pacemaker.
●
Do not carry your mobile phone in your
breast pocket, directly over the pacemaker,
when it is switched on.
● If you suspect your mobile phone is causing
interference, switch it off immediately. Note
● Telephone conversations inside the vehicle
can be affected by high speed, poor atmos-
pheric conditions and the road surface, as
well as by the quality of the network.
● The instructions that appear on the screen
related to the telephone menu depend on the
mobile device used. There may be differen-
ces.
● Take into account the instruction manuals
of the mobile phone and the supplier of the
accessories, and any instructions for using
the headset.
● In areas with poor coverage there may be
anomalies in the reception and calls may be
interrupted.
● If you detect any strange behaviour be-
tween your mobile phone and the radio, re-
start your mobile by switching it off and on
again.
● Consult the compatibility list to ensure
your mobile phone will work properly.
● Most electronic devices are shielded
against high-frequency radio signals. On cer- tain occasions, nevertheless, electronic
equipment might not be protected against
the radio frequency signals of the telephone
management (Phone). This may produce in-
terference.

stallation for mobile telephones in places
with risk of explosion. These areas are com-
mon but are not always clearly marked
››› in Introduction on page 41
