Hands-free phone systemThe hands-free system enables calls to be
made and received without having to take
your hands off the steering wheel.
This system supports Bluetooth. Bluetooth
is a wireless data system that enables cell
phones to be used without being con-
nected by a cable or placed in a cradle.
The operating procedure of the phone is
explained here.
WARNING
.While driving, do not use a cell
phone or connect the Bluetooth
phone. Doing so may result in
loss of control of your vehicle
and cause an accident or serious
injury.
.Your audio unit is fitted with
Bluetooth antennas. People with
implantable cardiac pacemakers,
cardiac resynchronization ther-
apy-pacemakers or implantable
cardioverter defibrillators should
maintain a reasonable distance
between themselves and the
Bluetooth antennas. The radio
waves may affect the operation
of such devices..Before using Bluetooth devices,
users of any electrical medical
device other than implantable
cardiac pacemakers, cardiac re-
synchronization therapy-pace-
makers or implantable cardiover-
ter defibrillators should consult
the manufacturer of the device
for information about its opera-
tion under the influence of radio
waves. Radio waves could have
unexpected effects on the opera-
tion of such medical devices.
CAUTION

vehicle. The temperature inside may
rise to a level that could damage the
phone.NOTE.If your cell phone does not support
Bluetooth, this system cannot function.

WARNING
Because the range of the image
captured by the camera is limited,
always check the traffic around the
vehicle directly with your eyes when
driving the vehicle.NOTE.The range of the displayed image
may differ depending on the vehicle
status or the road surface status.
.Because the Front View Monitor
system uses a specially designed lens,
the sense of distance in the displayed
image is different from the actual dis-
tance.
.The camera image may be difficult to
view in the following situations. This is
not a malfunction.
–Dark place (at night)
–High or low temperature around
the lens
–Water contacts lens or in high
humidity (rainy weather)
–There is foreign materials (such
as mud) around the camera
–Sunlight or headlight beam di-
rectly shines towards the camera
lens
.Under an artificial light such as afluorescent lamp, sodium-vapor lamp
or mercury lamp, the lighted portion
may look like it is flickering (flicker
phenomenon).
.While the display has cooled down,
the image may leave traces or become
darker than usual, causing a difficulty
in viewing the screen. Always check the
traffic around the vehicle directly with
your eyes while driving the vehicle.
.The following incidents should not
be deemed a malfunction.
–The camera lens may become
foggy when the humidity is high on
a rainy day.
–The light from a vehicle or build-
ing located ahead may be reflected
towards the camera image while
driving at night.
–In a dark place or while driving at
night, the camera image may be
adjusted to make noises less visi-
ble. Therefore, the image may look
like a monochromatic image or the
image colors may differ from the
actual colors. The camera image
may be deteriorated in regard to
sharpness at the center and four
corners of the screen. This is not a
malfunction.
