Cellular Phone: Description and Operation
HANDS FREE PHONE
The vehicle telecommunications system consists of a Hands Free Module, Rear View Mirror, and a Blue-tooth Hands Free Profile enabled cell phone.
The system allows vehicle occupants to use voice recognition technology to make, receive and screen phone calls without physically handling a cell
phone. The system has a programmable phone book that can prevent the vehicle operator from becoming distracted searching for a specific number.
Seven different wireless phones can be programmed to operate each individual system. Each of the seven phones is given a rank of priority when
programmed.
Incoming phone messages are transmitted to the vehicle occupants through the vehicles audio system when the ignition is on and the wireless phone is
on. Upon receiving the signal from an incoming phone call, the vehicle audio system will fade out the current CD/DVD or radio output. The vehicle
occupants are then directed to accept or reject the call. Outgoing audio messages are received through the microphone located in the rearview mirror then
transmitted via hardwire to the Hands Free Module and finally transmitted through the wireless phone. Volume of the voice prompts and incoming
conversation is controlled using the vehicle's radio audio controls and steering wheel controls if equipped. The rear view mirror contains a Phone Switch,
Voice Recognition Switch and a microphone. The rear view mirror transmits these inputs via hard-wired circuits to the Hands Free Module.
