72 Telephone*Important notes
Please read the chapter “Telephone”
first before attempting to operate your
telephone.

Please also read the important notes in
the telephone operating manual.

Always drive with extreme caution
when you operate the telephone
hands-free.

For safety reasons, you should not use
the mobile telephone handset to make
a call while driving the vehicle.
If the signal strength is very weak (dis-
play in the symbol bar of all menus):
Wait until reception improves before
making a call.

Close the windows and reduce all out-
side noise as much as possible when
you use hands-free operation.

Also make sure that the air vents are
not pointed in the direction of the
microphones located in the overhead
control panel near the rear view mirror.
Adjust air vents and/or reduce blower
speed if necessary.
