BLUETOOTH OPERATION
About Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless radio connectivity technology that is
developed as a cable replacement for mobile phones, handheld PCs and
other devices. Bluetooth operates in 2.4 GHz frequency range and
transmits voice and data at speeds up to 1 megabit per second. Bluetooth
was launched by a special interest group (SIG) comprised of Ericsson Inc.,
Intel Corp., Nokia Corp., Toshiba and IBM in 1998, and it is currently
developed by nearly 2,000 companies worldwide. The Bluetooth word mark
and logos are owned by the Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any use of such marks
by Audiovox Corporation is under license. Other trademarks and trade
names are those of their respective owners.
NOTE: The line-of-sight distance between this unit and your cellular
phone must be 8 meters or less for sending and receiving voice and
data via Bluetooth wireless technology. However, the transmission
distance may become shorter than the estimated distance, depending
on the environment in use.
Before attempting to use the Bluetooth functions on the MP6612i, please
make sure your mobile phone supports Bluetooth functions (Headset or
Handsfree profiles or both). Adhere to the following guidelines for
successful operation.
•
Before using Bluetooth functions, you must pair your mobile phone to
the MP6612i head unit (see “Pairing your Mobile Phone and Head Unit
via Bluetooth”). To ensure the best reception for pairing and re-
connection, please make sure the phone battery is fully charged before
you begin.
•
Try to perform pairing within a few minutes of the phone being turned
on.
•
Once the unit has been paired with the phone, the unit’s model number,
“MP6612i”, will be displayed on the mobile phone.
•
To achieve the best performance, always keep the mobile phone within
3 meters of the head unit.
•
Always keep a clear path between the mobile phone and the head unit.
Never place a metal object or any other obstacle between the mobile
phone and the head unit.
Some mobile phones (like Sony Ericsson) may have a "Power Saving
Mode" option. PLEASE DO NOT use the power saving mode with the
MP6612i.
•
Before accepting or making a call, make sure your mobile phone's
“Bluetooth function” is turned on.
•
To ensure the best conversation quality/performance, stay within one
meter of the head unit when talking.
•
To “disconnect” the mobile phone from the head unit, turn the Bluetooth
connectivity off on the mobile phone.
•
Phone Book direct searching through the head unit is only
available if the mobile phone supports Phone Book Download.
If
the feature is not supported, the head unit will display “EMPTY” when
an attempt is made to download a phone book.
Hands Free Profile (HFP)
To use a phone wirelessly with this unit, it is necessary to first establish a
connection using Bluetooth wireless technology. Connection is normally
established using HFP (Hands Free Profile), which gives you full control of
functions available on the telephone source. However, depending on your
phone, the connection may be made using HSP (Head Set Profile), making
some functions unavailable. This is a limitation of your phone, not the
MP6612i.
Since there are a number of Bluetooth mobile phone implementations
available on the market, operations with your Bluetooth mobile phone using
this unit vary greatly.
Please refer to the instruction manual that came with your Bluetooth mobile
phone along with this manual while operating your phone with this unit.
