Telephone System From June 2009
The telephone system consists of the following components:
- Cell phone preparation in the information electronics control module 1 -J794-
The cell phone preparation does not have a separate control module (telephone transceiver -R36-), but rather all the functions are integrated into the information electronics control module 1 -J794-. The telephone is operated either by the MMI Infotainment or by the Cellular Telephone -R54-.
The microphones for the Microphone Unit In Front Roof Module -W1- are integrated in the Front Interior Lamp -R164-. On microphone (Left Front Microphone -R140-) is connected directly to the Information Electronics Control Module 1 -J794-.
- Bluetooth hands-free calling information electronics control module 1 -J794-
The Information Electronics Control Module 1 -J794- is installed with the Microphone Unit In Front Roof Module -R164- and is part of the hands-free setup. Bluetooth connect the Cell Phone -R54-.
The Bluetooth Antenna -R152- is integrated in the Information Electronics Control Module 1 -J794-.
