Bluetooth Operation Setup Before Using ■■ About Bluetooth Bluetooth is a wireless technology allowing communication between a mobile device or personal computer over short distances. This enables a handsfree call or data transmission between Bluetooth compatible devices. Bluetooth transmission is available in the unlicensed 2.4 GHz spectrum if the distance between devices is within 10 metres. For details, refer to the Bluetooth website (http:// www.bluetooth.com/). • Depending on the Bluetooth version, a Bluetooth compatible device may not be able to communicate with this unit. • Proper function of this unit with all Bluetooth compatible devices is not guaranteed. For handling of the Bluetooth compatible device, consult your Alpine dealer or Alpine website. • Depending on the surroundings, Bluetooth wireless connection may be unstable. • When you place a call, or perform setup operations, be sure to stop your car in a safe place. • Depending on the connected Bluetooth compatible device(s), the function may differ. Also refer to the Owner's Manual of the connected device(s). ■■ About Handsfree Phone Handsfree calls are possible when using a HFP (Hands-Free Profile) compatible mobile phone with this unit. • Avoid performing a handsfree call in heavy traffic or on narrow or winding streets. • Close the windows while calling to reduce background noise. • If both calling parties are using handsfree devices, or the call is made in a noisy location, difficulty hearing the other person's voice is normal. • Depending on telephone line conditions or certain mobile devices used, voices may sound unnatural. • When using a microphone, speak as directly as you can into the microphone to obtain the best sound quality. • Certain mobile phone features are dependent on the capabilities and settings of your service provider's network. Additionally, certain features may not be activated by your service provider, and/or the provider's network settings may limit the feature's functionality. • Always contact your service provider about feature availability and functionality. • All features, functionality, and other product specifications, as well as the information contained in the Owner's Manual are based upon the latest available information and are believed to be accurate at the time of printing. • Alpine reserves the right to change or modify any information or specifications without notice or obligation. • Notice that when you connect an iPhone 5 or later/Android smartphone which installed Android Auto App, the operation screen may differ from this section. 55-EN
