Telephone mode*
On vehicles with a car telephone kit, you can
choose between three different telephone modes
to optimise the mobile network response:
- Automatic: The car telephone automatically
switches between the GSM (2G), UMTS (3G)
and LTE networks. This depends on the mobile
network's availability and reception, and on the
position of the vehicle. In this mode, there
might be restrictions when using Google Earth
or Wi-Fi.
- Telephony optimised: The car telephone kit
registers with the GSM network (2G). In this

mode,
the reception is prioritised for making
and receiving calls. There may be restrictions
when using Google Earth or Wi-Fi.
- Data service optimised: The car telephone
reg­

isters with the GSM (2G), UMTS (3G) or LTE net­
work. This depends on the mobile network, its

reception,
and the position of the vehicle. In
this mode, the reception is prioritised for the
use of data services. There may be restrictions
when making and receiving calls.
