Bluetooth®
The equipment enables the wireless connection to the control unit of a
telephone with Bluetooth® function which supports the rSAP profile.
Process of connection
– Switch on the ignition.
– If you have not switched on Bluetooth
® on your telephone, switch it
on.
– For certain mobile phones it is necessary to switch on first the rSAP
function.
– Press the button
on the multifunction steering wheel and select
device search . The system searches mobile devices and shows these
in the information display*.
– Select your telephone in the information display by turning the hand- wheel and select it by pressing the handwheel.
– Within 30 seconds enter in your te lephone the 30 digit PIN of your
control unit, which is indicated in your information display* and
confirm it according to the instructions on the display of your tele-
phone.
– If your SIM card is blocked by a PIN code, enter the PIN of the SIM card of your telephone. The telephone connects to the control unit (during
the first connection you can only se lect in the information display*
and when the vehicle is stationary , if the PIN should be stored).
– For the first storage of a new user follow the instructions in the infor-
mation display.
– To download the telephone book and the indentification data of the SIM card into the new control unit, confirm again the command rSAP
in your mobile phone. The system reads the telephone book.
If you do not want to confirm the command rSAP during each connection of the
telephone to the control unit, then you must carry out in the menu of the mobile
phone an authorization using the control unit.
The telephone deregisters from the GSM network and only the control unit ensures
the communication with the network. In th e telephone only the interface for Blue-
tooth
® remains active. In this case, you can only select to separate from the device,
switch off the Bluetooth® connection or the number of the emergency call 112.
If the PIN was stored, an automatic selection and connection of the telephone take
place the next time the ignition is swit ched. Check on your mobile phone if the
automatic connectio n was established.
Connection terminated
The connection of the handsfree-system is terminated by means of Bluetooth
®:
•When removing the key from the igniti on lock (during a telephone call, the
connection is disconnected).
•By switching off the Bluetooth® in the mobile phone.
•By selecting “separate telephone” in the menu of the mobile phone.
On vehicles which are fitted out with radio or navigation at the factory, it is possible
to terminate the telephone call after remo ving the key from the ignition lock by
pressing the icon on the touch-screen of the radio
13) or the navigation, see oper-
ating instructions for radio or for navigation.
WARNING
•Pay attention primarily to the traffic situation! As the driver you are fully
responsible for road safety. Use the tele phone system only to such an extent,
so that you are in full control of your vehicle at any time - risk of accident!
•In the event of air transport, the Bluetooth® function of the handsfree-
system must be switched of f by a specialist garage!
13)Does not apply for Radio Swing.

Seat belts
156
•No two persons (also not children) should ever use a single seat belt
together.
•The maximum protection which seat belts can offer is only achieved if
you are correctly seated ⇒page 150, “Correct seated position”.
•The belt webbing must no t run across solid or fragile objects (e.g. spec-
tacles, ball-point pens, keys etc.) as this may be a cause of injuries.
•Bulky, loose clothing (e.g. a winter coat over a jacket) does not allow you
to be correctly seated and impairs proper operation of the seat belts.
•It is prohibited to use clamps or other objects to adjust seat belts (e.g. for
shortening the belts for smaller persons).
•The lock tongue should only be insert ed into the lock which is the correct
one for your seat. Wrong use of the safety belt will reduce its capacity to
protect and the risk of injury increases.
•The backrests of the front seats must not be tilted too far to the rear
otherwise the seatbelts can lose their effectiveness.
•The belt webbing must always be ke pt clean. Soiled belt webbing may
impair proper operation of the inertia reel ⇒page 203, “Seat belts”.
•The slot of the belt tongue must not be blocked by paper or similar
objects otherwise the belt tongue will not lock in place properly.
•Inspect the seat belts regularly to ensure they are in good condition. If
you find seat belts which have damage to the seat belt webbing, seat belt
connections, to the inertia reels or to the lock, the relevant safety belt must
be replaced by a specialist garage.
•The seat belts must not be removed or changed in any way. Do not make
an attempt to repair the seat belts yourself.
•Damaged seat belts which have been subjected to stress in an accident
and were therefore stretched, must be replaced - this is best done by a
specialist garage. The anchorage points of the belts must also be inspected.
The anchorage points for the be lts should also be checked.
•In certain countries it is possible to use seat belts which differ in terms of
their operation from the seat belts which are described on the pages which
follow.
How are seat belts correctly fastened?
Fastening three-point seat belts
Fasten your seat belt before starting!
– Correctly adjust the front seat and the head restraint before fastening
your seat belt ⇒page 75.
