Audio
& Tips for the Hands-free system
! Bluetooth®
It is possible to connect a cell phone to the
in-vehicle equipment through the Bluetooth® format (wireless) to make a phone
call from the in-vehicle equipment or take
an incoming phone call.
Since the Bluetooth® format is wireless, a
connection between the in-vehicle equipment and the cell phone can be made
without placing them in close proximity of
each other. The cell phone can be used
with it left in the breast pocket or bag.
NOTE
. The Hands-free system may not
operate properly under the following
conditions.
– The cell phone is turned off.
– The cell phone is not in the
phone call area.
– The battery of the cell phone has
run down.
– The cell phone is not connected
to the Hands-free system.
– The cell phone is behind the seat
or in the glove box.
– A metal material covers or
touches the cell phone.
. Depending on the type of cell phone
that is used, the screen on the cell
phone may remain illuminated while
the ignition switch is in the “ON”
position. If this occurs, turn the illumination off by adjusting the cell phone
settings.
. Depending on the setting of the cell
phone, the dial lock function may be
activated after making a call. Deactivate the automatic dial lock function of
the cell phone before using the Handsfree system.
. Depending on the type of cell phone
that is used, operation and the sound
volume may be different from those of
cell phones currently used.
. When the ignition switch is turned to
the “LOCK” position during a call, the
call may be disconnected or continued
on the cell phone depending on the
type of cell phone that is used. Note
that operation of the cell phone may be
necessary if the call is continued on the
cell phone.
. Do not speak at the same time as the
other party during a call. If you and the
party speak at the same time, it may be
difficult for the other party to hear your
voice and vice versa. This is normal.
. The receiver sound volume should
be set as low as possible. Otherwise,
the party you are calling may notice an
5-37
undesirable echo sound.
. Speak clearly and loudly.
. Your voice may be difficult to be
heard by the party under the following
conditions.
– Driving on a rough road
– Driving at a high speed
– Driving with a window open
– When air from the ventilator
blows directly towards the microphone
– When the sound coming from the
ventilator is loud
– When the cell phone is too close
to the microphone
. The sound quality may degrade due
to the influence of the cell phone that is
connected to the system or the circumstances of the Bluetooth network.
. When another Bluetooth® device is
simultaneously connected, noise may
be heard in the voice coming from the
hands-free phone.
