Bluetooth (Overview)
The Bluetooth-capable system can
interact with many mobile devices,
allowing:
.Placement and receipt of calls in

To minimize driver distraction,
before driving, and with the vehicle
parked:
. Become familiar with the
features of the mobile device.
Organize the phone book and
contact lists clearly and delete
duplicate or rarely used entries.
If possible, program speed dial
or other shortcuts.

operation of the infotainment
system. .
Pair mobile device(s) to the
vehicle. The system may not

can use a Bluetooth-capable mobile
device with a Hands-Free Profile to
make and receive phone calls. The
