with the in-vehicle phone module when
the ignition switch is placed in the ON po-
sition with the previously connected cellu-
lar phone turned on and carried in the ve-
hicle.
NOTE:
Some devices require the user to accept
connections to other Bluetooth® de-
vices. If your phone does not connect au-
tomatic ally to the system, consult the
phone’s Owner’s Manual for details on
device operation.
You can connect up to five different
Bluetooth® cellular phones to the in-
vehicle phone module. However, you can
talk on only one cellular phone at a time.
Before using the Bluetooth® Hands-Free
Phone System, refer to the following notes.∙ Set up the wireless connection be- tween a compatible cellular phone and
the in-vehicle phone module before us-
ing the hands-free phone system. ∙ Some Bluetooth® enabled cellular
phones may not be recognized or work
properly. Please visit
www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth or
www.nissan.ca/bluetooth for a recom-
mended phone list and connecting in-
structions.
∙ You will not be able to use a hands-free phone under the following conditions:
– Your vehicle is outside of the cellular service area.
– Your vehicle is in an area where it is difficult to receive a cellular signal;
such as in a tunnel, in an under-
ground parking garage, near a tall
building or in a mountainous area.
– Your cellular phone is locked to pre- vent it from being dialed.
∙ When the radio wave condition is not ideal or ambient sound is too loud, it
may be difficult to hear the other per-
son’s voice during a call.
∙ 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 disruption. ∙ While a cellular phone is connected
through the Bluetooth® wireless con-
nection, the battery power of the cellu-
lar phone may discharge quicker than
usual. The Bluetooth® Hands-Free
Phone System cannot charge cellular
phones.
∙ For additional information, you can visit www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth or
www.nissan.ca/bluetooth for trouble-
shooting help.
∙ Some cellular phones or other devices may cause interference or a buzzing
noise to come from the audio system
speakers. Storing the device in a differ-
ent location may reduce or eliminate
the noise.
∙ For additional information, refer to the cellular phone Owner’s Manual regard-
ing the telephone charges, cellular
