2. SOME BASICS
The  hands-free  system  enables  calls
to  be  made  and  received  without  hav-
ing to take your hands off the steering
wheel.
This  system  supports  Bluetooth
®.
Bluetooth®  is  a  wireless  data  system
that enables cellular phones to be used
without being connected by a cable or
placed in a cradle.
The operating procedure of the phone
is explained here.
When an Apple CarPlay connection is
established,  phone  functions  will  be
performed by Apple CarPlay instead of
the hands-free system.
WA R N I N G
● While  driving,  do  not  use  a  cellular
phone or connect the Bluetooth® phone.
● Your  audio  unit  is  fitted  with  Bluetooth
®
antennas.  People  with  implantable  car-
diac  pacemakers,  cardiac  resynchroni-
zation  therapy-pacemakers  or
implantable  cardioverter  defibrillators
should  maintain  a  reasonable  distance
between themselves and the Bluetooth
®
antennas.  The  radio  waves  may  affect
the operation of such devices.
● Before  using  Bluetooth
®  devices,  users
of  any  electrical  medical  device  other
than  implantable  cardiac  pacemakers,
cardiac resynchronization therapy-pace-
makers  or  implantable  cardioverter
defibrillators  should  consult  the  manu-
facturer  of  the  device  for  information
about  its  operation  under  the  influence
of radio waves. Radio waves could have
unexpected  effects  on  the  operation  of
such medical devices.
NOTICE
● Do  not  leave  your  cellular  phone  in  the
vehicle. The temperature inside may rise
to a level that could damage the phone.
INFORMATION
●If  your  cellular  phone  does  not  support
Bluetooth®, this system cannot function.
● In  the  following  conditions,  the  system
may not function:
• The cellular phone is turned off.
• The  current  position  is  outside  the
communication area.
• The cellular phone is not connected.
• The cellular phone has a low battery.
● When  using  Bluetooth
®  audio  and
hands-free  at the  same  time,  the follow-
ing problems may occur:
• The  Bluetooth
®  connection  may  be
cut.
• Noise may be heard on the Bluetooth
®
audio playback.
