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

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.
