WARNING
. Use a phone after stopping your
vehicle in a safe location. If you have
to use a phone while driving, exercise
extreme caution at all times so full
attention may be given to vehicle
operation.

full attention to vehicle operation
while talking on the phone, pull off
the road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle before doing so.
CAUTION

Free Phone System. If you are an owner of a
compatible Bluetooth
Šenabled cellular phone,
you can set up the wireless connection between
your cellular phone and the in-vehicle phone module. With Bluetooth
Šwireless technology,
you can make or receive a telephone call with
your cellular phone in your pocket.
Once a cellular phone is connected to the in-
vehicle phone module, the procedure for con-
necting the phone does not need to be
performed again. Your phone is automatically
selected with the in-vehicle phone module when
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position
with the selected cellular phone turned on and
carried in the vehicle.
You can register up to 5 different Bluetooth
Š
devices in the in-vehicle phone module. How-
ever, you can talk on only one cellular phone at a
time.
The Voice Recognition system supports phone
commands, so dialing a phone number using
your voice is possible.

Before using the BluetoothŠHands-Free Phone
System, refer to the following notes.
. Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth
Š
functions share the same frequency band
(2.4 GHz) . Using the BluetoothŠand the
wireless LAN functions at the same time may
slow down or disconnect the communication
and cause undesired noise. It is recom-
mended that you turn off the wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) when using the Bluetooth
Šfunctions.
. Set up the wireless connection between a
compatible cellular phone and the in-vehicle
phone module before using the Bluetooth
Š
Hands-Free Phone System.

Šenabled cellular phones
may not be recognized by the in-vehicle

— Your cellular phone is locked in order toprevent dialing.
. When the radio wave condition is not ideal or
ambient sound is too loud, it may be difficult
to hear the other person’s voice during a call.
. Immediately after the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position, it may be
impossible to receive a call for a short period
of time.
. Do not place the cellular phone in an area
surrounded by metal or far away from the in-
vehicle phone module to prevent tone quality
degradation and wireless connection disrup-
tion.
. While a cellular phone is connected through
the Bluetooth
Šwireless connection, the
battery power of the cellular phone may
discharge quicker than usual.

cause interference or a buzzing noise to
come from the audio system speakers.
Storing the device in a different location
may reduce or eliminate the noise.
. Refer to the cellular phone Owner’s Manual
regarding the telephone pairing procedure
specific to your phone, battery charging,
cellular phone antenna, etc.

coincide with the antenna display of some
cellular phones.

possible to hear the caller’s voice clearly as
well as to minimize its echoes.
