equipment when the ignition switch is

If the system detects a cell phone in the
passenger compartment which was previously connected to the in-vehicle equipment when the ignition switch was last

system connects the cell phone automatically to the in-vehicle equipment. You
can select the phone to be connected to
the in-vehicle equipment. For details, refer

& Safety precautions
WARNING
. For safety reasons, avoid operating a cell phone while driving.
. Do not make a phone call while
driving. When you have an incoming call, stop the vehicle in a
safe location before taking the
incoming phone call. When you
have to absolutely take a phone
call, tell the caller “I’ll call you
back”. And then call the caller
back after stopping the vehicle in
a safe location.

CAUTION
. Do not leave a cell phone in the
vehicle. The temperature in the
vehicle may become extremely
high and cause a malfunction of
the cell phone.
