RADIO

OPERATION

Radio Data System (RDS)

Radio Data System (RDS) is a
system which allows digital data
to be sent to radio receivers at
the same time as the FM audio
signal.

Information that RDS transmits
enhances the entertainment
experience in the following ways.

x Alternative Frequencies

(AF), page 27;

x Program Identification (PI),

page 28;

x Program Service (PS), page

Alternative Frequencies (AF)

The AF feature constantly
monitors all transmitters which
are transmitting the radio station
you are listening to and
automatically selects the
strongest signal.

As your vehicle moves away
from one transmitter and nearer
to another, AF will switch
transmitters to maintain the best
reception possible.

OPERATION

Program Identification (PI)

PI is an individual identifier for
each radio station, and it is this
identifier that allows the AF
feature to switch between
frequencies to maintain audio
quality.

Program Service (PS)

PS is the method used to display
the station name, or an
abbreviation of it, on the radio
screen.

Switching between systems

You can switch between
systems, i.e. from Phone to

INTRODUCTION

PHONE

INTRODUCTION

Functions

IRIS provides the facility to

make and receive calls
safely and hands-free, by
connecting to your cell phone
using Bluetooth®.

The connection provides you
with access to the contacts and
call history stored on your
phone. IRIS also makes it
possible for you to initiate
conference calls.

WARNING: Do not allow

yourself to become
distracted by the phone while
driving. You could cause an
accident.

Safety precautions

WARNING: Never attempt

to operate the phone
while the vehicle is moving.
You could become distracted
and cause an accident.

Always store your phone
securely. Unsecured objects
can become dangerous
missiles in the event of an
accident.

WARNING: Always switch

off the phone in areas
with a high risk of explosion.
These areas include gas
stations, gas storage areas or
chemical factories, as well as
places where the air contains
fuel vapour, chemicals or
metal dust.

WARNING: The operation

of cardiac pacemakers or
hearing aids may be impaired
when the phone is in use.
Check with your doctor or the
manufacturer of the
equipment to establish if
anyone who is using such
devices, is sufficiently
protected against high
frequency energy.

We recommend that, to avoid
potential interference, a
minimum distance of 15 cm (6
in) is maintained between a
wireless phone antenna and a
cardiac pacemaker.

PHONE

INTRODUCTION

Bluetooth®

Bluetooth® is the short-range
radio frequency (RF) technology
which allows electronic devices
to communicate with each other
wirelessly.

Compatible Bluetooth® phones
can be used in conjunction with
IRIS.

The McLaren Bluetooth® system
supports Bluetooth® Hands­Free Profile 1.6 (HFP 1.6). If the
mobile phone connected to the
system also supports this profile,
features such as battery meter
and signal strength may be
displayed on the screen.

Your cell phone must be paired
and connected with IRIS before
it can be operated, see Pairing a
phone, page 43 and Connecting
a phone, page 46.

Paired means that IRIS
remembers a particular phone or
phones.

Connected means this is the
phone which is currently
connected to IRIS and can be
used to make and receive calls.

Only one phone can be
connected at any one time.

Switching between systems

You can switch between
systems, i.e. from Phone to
Media, using the MCC. For more
information, see MCC control,

Pairing a phone

The exact process of pairing and
connecting your cell phone to
IRIS, will depend on the type of
phone you are attempting to pair.

1. Switch the ignition on,
ensure that IRIS is active and
that no other phone is
currently connected to the
system.

2. From the Home Screen,
touch the PHONE icon.

3. If no phone has been
previously connected, the
system will automatically
switch on Discoverable
mode. If Discoverable is not
on, switch on manually, see
Discoverable mode, page 10.

NOTE: IRIS will time

out of Discoverable
mode once a phone is
connected or after 3 minutes
of no Bluetooth® activity.

4. Using your cell phone, select
the search for Bluetooth®
devices function.

NOTE: On some

phones, this is referred
to as a new paired device.
Refer to your phone's
operating instructions for the
exact description.

NAVIGATION

INTRODUCTION

NAVIGATION

INTRODUCTION

Functions

The navigation system

uses signals from Global
Positioning System (GPS)
satellites together with
information from vehicle sensors
and map data stored on IRIS to
determine the precise location of
the vehicle.

Using this data, the system is
able to create the optimum route
to your destination, taking into
account any journey preferences
you may have set, i.e. quickest
or shortest route.

To set your preferences, see
Options, page 89.

Creation of a specific route is
achieved by using the on screen
menus and the IRIS controls, to
make your selections.

This results in your route being
highlighted on the map in
orange. Once you have started a
journey, turn information is
displayed on the IRIS screen,
supplemented by voice guidance
if required, at appropriate points
during the journey.

NAVIGATION

INTRODUCTION

Safety

WARNING: For your

safety, ensure that you do
not become distracted from
the task of driving, through
use of the navigation system.

Read and adhere to the safety
message which appears the
first time you enter the
navigation system after
switching on the ignition.

National road traffic laws and
traffic signals must always be
obeyed.

Always remember that the
purpose of the navigation
system is to help in determining
the optimum route, it must never
be considered as an aid when
visibility is reduced.

GPS signals may be interrupted
when travelling through tunnels
or other situations where GPS
signal could be blocked.
Navigation will continue on the
route until GPS signal is
regained.
