system may not function:
• The cellular phone is turned off.
• The current position is outside the communication area.
• The cellular phone is not con- nected.

The hands-free system
enables calls to be made
and received without having
to take your hands off the
steering wheel.

®. Bluetooth® is a
wireless data system that
enables cellular phones to
be used without being con-
nected by a cable or placed
in a cradle.

connection is established,
phone functions will be per-
formed by Apple CarPlay
instead of the hands-free
system.
