Using a Bluetooth phone
You can use Bluetooth to talk on the phone hands free. View call
information on the system screen, and make or receive calls safely and
conveniently via the vehicle′s built-in microphone and speakers.
ÜWarning
•Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control that
may lead to an accident, severe bodily injury, or death. The driver’s
primary responsibility is the safe and legal operation of the vehicle,
and the use of any vehicle systems, including the touch screen and
steering wheel controls, which take the driver’s eyes, attention, and
focus away from the safe operation of the vehicle, or which are not
permissible by law, should never be used during the operation of the
vehicle.
•Park your vehicle in a safe location before connecting any Bluetooth
devices. Distracted driving can cause a traffic accident and lead to
personal injury or death.
•Never dial a phone number or pick up your mobile phone while
driving. Use of a mobile phone may distract your attention, making
it difficult to recognize external conditions and reducing the ability to
cope with unexpected situations, which may lead to an accident.
[Making a call

by selecting a name from your call history or contacts list. You can also
enter a phone number on the keypad.
