Technology(BT) Cellular Phone
• Bluetooth®Wireless Technology is
a near-field wireless networking
technology that uses the 2.4 GHz
frequency to connect various
devices within a certain distance
wirelessly.
• The technology is used in PCs, peripherals, Bluetooth
®Wireless
Technology phones, tablet PCs,
household appliances and automo-
biles. Devices supporting Bluetooth
®
Wireless Technology can exchange
data at high speeds without physical
cable connections.
• Bluetooth
®Wireless Technology
Handsfree devices enable conven-
ient access to phone functions
through cell phones equipped with
Bluetooth
®Wireless Technology.
• Some Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
devices may not be supported by
the Bluetooth
®Wireless Technology
Handsfree function. (Continued)(Continued)
• When
Bluetooth
®Wireless Technology
is connected and calls are attempted
through a connected cell phone from
outside the vehicle, the call is connected
through the Bluetooth
®Wireless
Technology Handsfree function of the
vehicle.
• Please be sure to disconnect the Bluetooth
®Wireless Technology
Handsfree function through your
Bluetooth
®Wireless Technology
device or the audio screen.
• See http://www.kia.com for a list of supported Bluetooth
®devices.
Safety precautions
The
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology
Handsfree function helps drivers to
drive safely. By connecting a
Bluetooth®Wireless Technology-
enabled phone to the vehicle’s
audio system, phone calls can be
made and received through the
