●This system is not guaranteed to
operate with all Bluetooth®
devices.
●If your cellular phone does not
support Bluetooth®, this system
cannot function.
●In the following conditions, the
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 cellular phone has a low bat- tery.
●Depending on the type of

same time, the following problems
may occur:
• The Bluetooth
® connection may

Some basics
The 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 cellular 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.
When an Apple CarPlay
connection is established,
phone functions will be per-
formed by Apple CarPlay
instead of the hands-free
system.
WARNING
●While driving, do not operate a
cellular phone.
