Navigation/Telecommunication - Description
DESCRIPTION
TELECOMMUNICATIONS
The hands-free cellular system on this vehicle uses Bluetooth(TM) technology to provide wireless communication between the operator's compatible
cellular telephone and the vehicle's on-board receiver.
The system uses voice recognition technology to control operation. The incoming voice is broadcast through the vehicle's radio speakers, automatically
overriding any other audio signals on the front speakers when the hands-free system is in use. A microphone in the rearview mirror picks up vehicle
occupant's voices. If a call is in progress when the ignition is switched off, the call will be transferred to the hand-held telephone.
The system will communicate with a telephone that is anywhere within the vehicle. However, covering the hand held phone or the hands-free phone
module with a metal object may block the signal. The system will recognize up to seven telephones, each of which is given a spoken identification by the
user during the setup process. The system includes Spanish and French voice recognition in addition to English.
The hands free module is contained within the radio for premium systems. With the low line radio, the hands free module is located on the left side of the
instrument panel to the left of the steering column.
