When the ignition switch is turned to the “LOCK” position during a call, the call may be disconnected or continued on the cell phone depending on the type of cell phone that is used. Note that operation of the cell phone may be necessary if the call is continued on the cell phone. . Do not speak at the same time as the other party during a call. If you and the party speak at the same time, it may be difficult for the other party to hear your voice and vice versa. This is normal. . The receiver sound volume should be set as low as possible. Otherwise, the party you are calling may notice an undesirable echo sound. . Speak clearly and loudly. . Your voice may be difficult to be heard by the party under the following conditions.

– Driving on a rough road. – Driving at a high speed. – Driving with a window open. – When air from the ventilator blows directly towards the micro- phone. – When the sound coming from the ventilator is loud.

– When the cell phone is too close to the microphone.

. The sound quality may degrade due to the influence of the cell phone that is connected to the system or the circum- stances of the Bluetooth network. .

NOTE This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protec- tion against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment interference to may cause harmful radio communications, is not installed and used in accordance with the instructions. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful inter- ference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the inter- ference by one or more of the following measures. .

Changes or modifications not ex- pressly approved by the party respon- sible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equip- ment. . This equipment complies with FCC/ IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled equipment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that it deemed to comply with- out maximum permissive exposure evaluation (MPE). But it is desirable that it should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20 cm or more away from person’s body (ex- cluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet and ankles). . This transmitter must not be co- located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

& Safety precautions

WARNING

. For safety reasons, avoid operat- ing the cell phone while driving. . Do not make a phone call while driving. When you have an in- coming call, stop the vehicle in a safe location before taking the incoming phone call. When you have to absolutely take a phone call, tell the caller “I’ll call you back”. And then call the caller back after stopping the vehicle in a safe location.

CAUTION

. Do not leave the cell phone in the vehicle. The temperature in the vehicle may become extremely high and cause a malfunction of the cell phone.

. When using the cell phone, be careful not to get it close to the in-vehicle equipment. Getting it too close to the in-vehicle equip- ment may result in deterioration in tone quality or a poor connect- ing condition.
