Bluetooth Operation

BT1613

Before attempting to use the Bluetooth functions on the BT1613, 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 BT1613 head unit. (See “Pairing the Bluetooth system with your Mobile Phone and Head Unit” on page 18.) 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, “BT60A” 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 BT1613.

•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 or use the DIS- CON (disconnect) feature under the System Menu (see “RE-CON/DIS-CON” on page 3).

•While talking in Telephone mode, it is recommended that you set the main volume level below “30”. A higher volume setting may create an unwanted echo in the vehicle that can feed back into the microphone.

•If you have difficulty pairing or the Bluetooth operation is not functioning properly, you can try a “soft reset” by removing the front panel (see “Front Panel Release” on page 4) and waiting 1 minute. If after reattaching the panel, operation has not resumed normally, you can perform a complete system Reset (see “Reset Button” on page 5).
