Introduction to the subject
The range of the connection to the hands-free system is limited to the passen-
ger compartment.
To connect a telephone with the device, the two devices must be paired via
Bluetooth ®
.
The coupling procedure depends on the number of telephones that are already
connected » page 31, Possible connection types .
Up to 20 external devices can be paired with the device. After reaching the
maximum number, the pairing of the next external device will replace that of
the device that has not been used for the longest period of time.
A connection with a telephone that is already paired does not require coupling.
It is enough to find the telephone that has been coupled in the list of coupled
phones and make the connection.
WARNINGPair and connect a telephone to the device only when the vehicle is at a
standstill - there is risk of accident!
conditions for coupling
