VOICE ACTIVATION

(Where fitted)

The Bluetooth telephone system can be 
used in conjunction with the voice 
activation system to provide the driver 
with completely hands-free 
communication. Voice commands are 
picked up by the system microphone.

For information about using voice 
activation, refer to the Voice Control 
section, starting on page 331.

!

WARNING:

The voice activation system must not 
be used to call emergency numbers, as 
voice patterns can change under 
stress, resulting in commands 
becoming unrecognisable.

SAFETY

!

WARNING:

Read this information before using 
your in-car telephone system.

Driving

Check local regulations on the use of 
telephones in the areas where you drive 
and always obey them. Observe the 
following guidelines when using your 
phone whilst driving:
• Give full attention to driving - safe 

driving is your first responsibility.

• Always use hands-free operation 

when driving.

• When receiving a call, if driving 

conditions demand, pull off the road 
and park.

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment is 
shielded from radio Frequency (RF) 
signals.

However, certain equipment may not be 
shielded against RF signals from your 
telephone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers 
Association recommends that a minimum 
separation of 15 centimetres (6 inches) is 
maintained between a wireless phone 
antenna and a pacemaker to avoid 
potential interference with the 
pacemaker. These recommendations are 
consistent with the independent research 
by and recommendations of Wireless 
Technology Research.

Telephone Introduction

L

Persons with pacemakers should:
• Preferably use the vehicle hands-free 

system.

• ALWAYS keep the phone more than 

15 centimetres (6 inches) from their 
pacemaker when the phone is 
switched ON.

• Turn the phone OFF immediately if 

there is any reason to suspect that 
interference is taking place.

Other medical devices

If you use any other personal medical 
device, consult the manufacturer of your 
device, or your doctor, to determine that it 
is adequately shielded from external RF 
energy.

Turn your phone OFF in health care 
facilities when any regulations posted in 
such areas instruct you to do so. 
Hospitals or health care facilities may be 
using equipment that could be sensitive 
to external RF energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect non-Jaguar or 
improperly installed equipment. Always 
consult the manufacturer of any 
equipment that has been retro-fitted to 
your vehicle.

Posted facilities

Turn your phone OFF in any facility where 
posted notices so require.

Blasting areas

To avoid interfering with blasting 
operations, turn your phone OFF when in 
a blasting area or in areas posted: Turn off 
two-way radios. Obey all signs and 
instructions.

Potentially explosive atmospheres

Areas with a potentially explosive 
atmosphere are often, but not always, 
clearly marked. Turn your phone OFF 
when you are in such an area, as the use 
of unapproved electrical equipment can 
cause an explosion or fire resulting in 
bodily injury or death.

Air bags

Air bags inflate with great force. 

!

WARNING:

Do NOT place objects, including both 
installed or portable wireless 
equipment, in the area over an air bag 
or in the air bag deployment area. If 
in-vehicle wireless equipment is 
improperly installed and the air bag 
inflates, serious injury could result.

PAIRING YOUR PHONE

Before use, your mobile phone must be 
connected or paired with the vehicle’s 
Bluetooth system. 

Vehicles with touch-screen

Follow these steps to pair your phone 
with the vehicle:
• Switch the vehicle’s ignition ON 

(position II).

• Press the 

 button, to the left of the 

touch-screen.

• Ensure that no phone is currently 

connected to the car.

• The message Discover Me will be 

displayed, to confirm that the system 
is ready to pair with a mobile phone.

• Switch on your mobile phone’s 

Bluetooth connection, using the 
phone’s menu. (See your phone’s 
manual for more information).

• Select search for other Bluetooth 

devices or Audio Accessories from 
your mobile phone’s menu.

• Select Jaguar in your phone’s paired 

device list, in order to connect to the 
vehicle’s Bluetooth system.

• Enter the Passkey on your mobile 

phone (the Passkey is 1313).

• After a short delay, the messages 

Registered followed by Phone 
Connected will confirm that the 
phone and vehicle are paired.

Note: 

•

When a mobile phone is paired to the 
vehicle and the Bluetooth connection 
is established, at least one bar will be 
displayed next to the antenna icon 
(depending on the type of mobile 
phone used and whether or not it 
supports the Bluetooth signal strength 
feature). However, you will need to 
refer to your mobile phone’s display to 
determine the strength of the network 
signal.

•

If an incorrect Passkey is entered, your 
mobile phone should prompt you to 
enter the correct Passkey.
