Operating guidelines
12. Accepting, making, ending calls
You will be alerted of an incoming call via the voice output and the ring tone. Your vehicle‘s sound
system will switch onto mute. If the caller sends their telephone number with the call, this will be
shown in the display unless the number is saved in your phone. If an entry for the number is saved in
your phone, then the name of the caller will be read out. If the caller hides their number, this will be
indicated in the display.
In the standard setting, you can only accept or decline an incoming call via the touchscreen. If you
would like to accept the call, simply press down on the symbol on the left. If you don‘t want to accept
the call, please press the symbol on the right.
During the call, you have the possibility to regulate the volume of the voice of your discussion partner
through the minus(-) or plus(+) field.
By pressing down the yellow arrows you reach a sub menu. Here, you are able to select a Keypad,
with which you are able to send DTMF tones (e.g. to check on your mailbox).
The Private mode is an additional sub menu item. If you activate this, the telephone call is transfer-
red by the HFCK to your mobile phone and it is no longer possible to hear the voice output of your
conversational partner over the car‘s loudspeakers.
Note:
Please comply with the country-specific laws concerning in-car telephone calls.

With the sub menu item Mute, the microphone in your vehicle is muted. You are then able to commu-
nicate with a passenger, for instance, without the person who is calling you being able to hear you. If
you would like to activate this function, you should inform the person with whom you are telephoning
accordingly as they won’t be able to hear you at all.
