This chapter covers the operation of a Bluetooth ®
device connected to the tel-
ephone.
Depending on the Bluetooth ®
-profile used it is possible to connect to a tele-
phone or two phones simultaneously to the device.
If telephones are connected to the device with multiple SIM cards, then calls
can be accepted by all SIM cards of the connected telephones.
For outgoing calls, it depends on the type of connected telephone, either only
the primary SIM card or one of the other SIM cards can be selected.
The device allows you to work with text messages from the main telephone, if
supported by the telephone.
WARNINGThe national regulations for using a mobile phone in a vehicle must be ob-
served.

To connect a telephone with the device, the two devices must be paired via
Bluetooth ®
.
The coupling procedure depends on the number of telephones already associ-
ated.
A connection with a telephone that is already paired does not require coupling.
It is enough to find the telephone that has been coupled in the list of coupled
phones and make the connection.
If a device is connected to the device using Apple CarPlay, then a connection
using Bluetooth ®
is possible.
Note
■ The range of the connection to the hands-free system is limited to the pas-
senger compartment.■
The maximum number of paired telephones is 20. Pairing a new telephone
after reaching the maximum number causes the telephone that has not been
paired for the longest time to be automatically replaced.
conditions for coupling
The telephone can be coupled with the device under the following conditions.
31Telephone

The ignition is switched on.
The Bluetooth ®
function of the device » page 16 and the telephone is
switched on.
The visibility of the device » page 16 and the telephone is switched on.
The telephone is within range of the Bluetooth ®
signal of the device.
The telephone is compatible with the device.
There is no device connected to the device using Apple CarPlay.
The pairing can be initiated from the device or from the telephone.
During the coupling and connecting process the device can demand the confir-
mation by the Bluetooth ®
profile (e.g., enable contact import, enable the test
messaging or the connection of an audio player or similar). The telephone dis-
play should be monitored to acknowledge any possible request.
Please refer to the compatibility of telephones as well as updates which are available for the Bluetooth ®
device, and are available on the ŠKODA Internet
