Notes for hands-free phoning

General notes

! Connection to all cellular phones featuring

Bluetooth wireless technology is not guaranteed.

phone, hands-free phoning may not be per-

formed.

Registration and connection

! Cellular phone operations vary depending

on the type of cellular phone. Refer to the

lular phone for detailed instructions. ! Depending on the mobile phone, transfer-

ring phone book may not work even though

tion system. In such case, disconnect your

phone, perform pairing again from your

phone to the navigation system, and then

perform the phone book transfer.

Making and receiving calls

! You may hear a noise in the following situa-

tions:

— When you answer the phone by using

the button on the phone.

— When the person on the other end of

line hangs up the phone.

! If the person on the other end of the phone

call cannot hear the conversation due to an

of the echo. ! With some cellular phones, even if you

press the accept button on the cellular

phone when a call comes in, hands-free

phoning may not be performed. ! The registered name appears if the phone

number of the received call is already regis-

tered in the phone book. When one phone

names, the name that comes first alphabe-

tically is displayed. ! If the phone number of the received call is

not registered in the phone book, the

phone number of the received call appears.

phone, no history data will be recorded in the navigation system.

About phone book transfers

! If there are more than 400 phone book en-

tries on your mobile phone, all entries may not be able to be downloaded completely.

! With some cellular phones, it may not be

possible to transfer all items in the phone book at one time. In this case, transfer items one by one from your cellular phone.
