®MOBILE PHONE
FEATURE WARNING
Whilst
driving, using the mobile phone is ex-
tremely dangerous because it significantly im-
pairs your concentration and diminishes your re-
action capabilities to sudden changes on the
road, and it may lead to afatal accident. This
applies to all phone call situations such as when
receiving an incoming call, during aphone con-
versation, when calling through the phone book
search, etc.
CAUTION
Certain country jurisdictions prohibit the use of
the mobile phone in the car without hands-free
support.
This chapter provides information about the hands-
free phone system using aBluetooth
®connection.
Bluetooth
®is aw ireless radio communication stan-
dard. This system offers ahands-free facility for your
mobile telephone to enhance driving comfort.
In order to use your mobile phone with the Blue-
tooth
®of the audio system, the mobile phone must
first be setup. For details, see “BLUETOOTH®
settings” later in this section. Once it has been
setup, the hands-free mode is automatically acti-
vated on the registered mobile phone (via Blue-
tooth
®)w hen it comes into range. An
otification message appears on the audio display
when the phone is connected, when an incoming
call is being received, as well as when acall is initi-
ated.
When acall is active, the audio system, microphone
(located in the ceiling in front of the rear view mir-
ror), and steering wheel switches enable hands-free
communication.
If the audio system is in use at the time, the radio,
CD, iPod, USB audio, Bluetooth audio or AUX
source mode will be muted and will stay muted until
the active call has ended.
The Bluetooth
®system may not be able to connect
with your mobile phone for the following reasons:
• The mobile phone is too far away from the ve-
hicle.
• The Bluetooth
®mode on your mobile phone has
not been activated.
• Your mobile phone has not been paired with the
Bluetooth
®system of the audio unit.
• The mobile phone does not support Bluetooth
®
technology (BT Core v2.0).
NOTE
• For models with Audio with Navigation sys-
tem see the separately provided Owner’s
Manual.
