Module, Hands Free: Description: Description
The hands-free cellular system on this vehicle uses Bluetooth™ 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.
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 a combine 10 phone and BTSA capable devices, 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 located under the instrument panel above the steering column support bracket.
