Bluetooth Operation

The line-of-sight distance between this unit and your cellular phone
must be 8 meters or less, depending on the environment.

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless radio connectivity technology that is developed as
a cable replacement for mobile phones, handheld PCs and other devices. Bluetooth
operates in 2.4 GHz frequency range and transmits voice and data at speeds up to 1
megabit per second.

The BTM10 (purchased separately) is required for Bluetooth operation.

Pairing your Phone

1. Press the button to initiate the pairing process. Keep the mobile phone within 2
meters of the head unit when pairing.

2. Select the Bluetooth setup option on the mobile phone to be paired (please refer
to the phone’s instruction manual).

3. If prompted, enter the “pass key” or pairing code. The dafault code for many
phones is “0000”. The default code for the VM9223 is “1234”.

4. Select “VM9223” from the pairing list on the mobile phone.

Hands Free Profile (HFP)

To use a phone wirelessly with this unit, it is necessary to first establish a connection
using Bluetooth wireless technology. Connection is normally established using HFP
(Hands Free Profile), which gives you full control of functions available on the
telephone source. However, depending on your phone, the connection may be made
using HSP (Head Set Profile), making some functions unavailable. This is a limitation
of your phone, not the VM9223.

Menu List

The menu list appears on the left side of the screen and can be accessed from other
modes by touching the MENU button on the right side of the screen.

To make a call from a list, touch the number and then touch the button.

Missed Calls: The Missed Calls list retrieves the list of Missed numbers from your

phone. The last missed number is the first number on the list. Touch the Missed
Calls menu option to view the list.

Dialed Calls: The Dialed Calls list retrieves the list of dialed numbers from your

phone. The last dialed number is the first number on the list. Touch the Dialed
Calls menu option to view the list.

Received Calls: Use the Received Calls list to view the last 10 received numbers

stored on your phone. To access the Received list, touch the Received Calls menu
option. The last received number is the first number on the list.

Phone Book: Touch the Phone Book menu option to display the phone book

stored on your mobile phone, if compatible. The screen will display “Ready...”
while the phone book is downloading. Once the download is completed, you can
use the arrow buttons and scroll bar on the right side of the window to navigate the
list. Since the unit downloads one page of entries at a time, there may be a slight
delay while the next page of numbers is downloaded.

Not all phones allow access to missed, received or dialed calls and
some will not allow uploading of your phone’s address book.
