Hands-Free Phone
Introduction
A mobile device equipped with hands-free (Bluetooth) capability can
be connected wirelessly to the vehicle’s hands-free phone system.
The vehicle’s hands-free phone system then lets you have remote
control of a range of the mobile phone's functions. The mobile phone
can always be operated by its own keys regardless of whether or not
it is connected.
The hands-free system is available when the vehicle key is in ignition
position ‘I’ or ‘II’. If, during a call, the vehicle key is moved to position
‘0’ or removed the call will transfer to the mobile phone after
approximately six seconds.
The system microphone is located in the vehicle roof above the
drivers head and the speech from an incoming call is from the two
door speakers.
The hands-free phone system uses the internal antenna of the
mobile phone. Placing the mobile phone in the trinket tray may
degrade the hands-free system performance.
The hands-free phone system will not recognize a mobile phone,
even if it is ‘paired’ (Refer to ’Pairing Phones’, page 9.5), if the mobile
phone does not have Bluetooth enabled. For more information refer
to the user’s guide for your mobile phone.
The hands-free phone system does not support SMS (text messages).

hands-free system automatically connects every time the ignition is
set to ON if the hands-free system (Press PHONE) and the mobile
phone are ON.
A mobile phone can be paired either using the vehicle hands-free
system or by using the mobile phone.
The vehicle's hands-free system supports paired links with up to 10
mobile phones.

phone varies per phone manufacturer. For more information refer to
the user’s guide for your mobile phone.
