General Information
The mobile telephone portal offers you the
opportunity to carry on your telephone
calls using your mobile phone via a vehicle
microphone and vehicle loud speaker
system as well as to operate the most
important mobile telephone functions via
the infotainment system in the vehicle.
The mobile phone portal is operated via
the steering wheel remote control system, a
voice control system and a multi-function
button on the radio. The menu driven
operations and status are shown via the
info display.
The fact that the most important content
on the telephone display is shown on the
info display enables you to operate the
whole portal comfortably.
The mobile phone should be operated via
an exterior aerial by clicking it into a
telephone-specific adapter.
When a telephone connection is active, the
radio sound is switched off. When the
telephone connection has ended, the radio
sound is switched on again.
General advice on these
operating instructions
You can find a description of the basic
steps for operating the infotainment
system on page 36 of the chapter entitled
"Operating".
You can find detailed functional
descriptions for your infotainment system
in the operating instructions included with
your infotainment system.
Information on telephone-specific
adapters for your mobile telephone can be
acquired from your Opel partner.
Some mobile telephone portal functions
are not supported by every mobile
telephone. The available telephone
functions depend on the mobile telephone
and network operator in question. You can
find additional information on this subject
in the operating instructions for your
mobile phone and in the instructions for
your telephone-specific adapter and
obtain them from your network operator.
In order to guarantee you speedy access to
specific issues, we have provided a
detailed list of keywords at the end of the
instruction manual.
The following symbols guide your reading
of the operating instructions:
A hand in front of the text requests you
to do something.
A hook in front of the text represents
the reaction of the infotainment
system.
A dot in front of the text provides you
with additional advice on the subject in
question.
A dash in front of the text characterises
a counting process.
A safety or warning sign contains
important information on the safe use
of your infotainment system.
A star indicates equipment not
contained in every vehicle (model
variants, country variants, special
equipment).
An arrow indicates that the current
subject is continued on the following
page.

Illustrating the displays
The way some displays are shown can vary
because the displays depend on the
device's and the vehicle's settings.
Important advice on operating and
road safety
Use your infotainment system in such a
way that you can always steer your
vehicle safely. If you have any doubts,
stop the vehicle and operate the
infotainment system while the vehicle
is stopped.
Operating the mobile telephone
Mobile telephones affect your environment. This is the reason why safety rules
and regulations were drawn up. You
should find out about the relevant
regulations before you use the telephone
function.
Use of the freespeech facility when
driving can be dangerous because it
reduces your concentration when you
are on the telephone. Park your vehicle
before you use the freespeech facility.
Always comply with the regulations of
the country in which you find yourself.
Do not forget to comply with the
special regulations in force in an area,
and always switch off the mobile
telephone if use of mobile telephones is
prohibited or if interference is being
caused by the mobile telephone or if
dangerous situations arise.
Mobile telephones operated in the
interior of a vehicle without an exterior
aerial cause disrupt the functioning of
the vehicle's electronics system. Only
operate mobile telephones using an
aerial attached to the exterior of the
vehicle.
Bluetooth™
When devices are being paired, a random
PIN code of at least four digits should be
selected for reasons of safety.
Operating the voice control system
Do not use the voice control system in
emergencies because your voice can
change so much in stressful situations that
you can no longer be sufficiently
recognised in order for the desired
connection to be created quickly enough.
Basis plate for the telephone support
Keep the base plate contacts free from
dust and dirt.
Loading the telephone batteries
As soon as the mobile telephone portal has
been switched on and the telephone has
been slotted into the telephone-specific
adapter, the telephone's batteries are
charged.
