20Using the hands-free system from the multi-function control
The hands-free system can be  activated using the multi-func-
tion control.As well as using the voice command system, it is possible to use the functions 
of the hands-free system from the multi-function controls.
When connection is established between your mobile telephone and the 
hands-free device, the phonebook in your telephone and/or your SIM card 
(depending on the phone) is downloaded to the hands-free device.
Depending on the version, when the connection is established between your 
mobile telephone and the hands-free device, the phonebook in the tele-
phone is downloaded to the hands-free device to recognise the contact of the 
incoming call and the outgoing call. This phonebook cannot be managed 
from the multi-function control. It cannot be viewed on the radio screen.

Note the following to ensure that you are properly understood:
•Speak in a normal tone and without pauses or exaggerated pronuncia-
tion.•Avoid poor articulation of words.•Keep the doors, windows and sun roof closed if possible to avoid back-
ground noises that might affect the system.•Keep the air vents directed away from the microphone (located on the 
interior light).•At high speeds, you might need to speak louder to drown out background 
noises.•Avoid other noises in the vehicle during a dialogue (e.g. other passengers 
speaking in the vehicle).•Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue.•The hands-free microphone is directed towards the driver, therefore, only 
the driver should try to operate the system.•To make a call when there is heavy background noise we recommend 
using the speech controlled telephone book instead of speaking individual 
digits. This will help avoid mistakes when specifying telephone numbers.
Micro off
If, at any time, we do not wish to be heard by the person on the other end of 
the line during a call, the vehicle microphone can be temporarily discon- nected. To do so, press the multi-function button   on the radio 
⇒page 21,
