Universal BluetoothTM Hands-Free System (ULF)

System Operation

Initial operation

Prior to using the system for the first time, the BluetoothTM mobile phone that is to be used must be paired with the ULF control module. This pairing procedure is necessary in order to assign the digital code of the mobile phone to the ULF control module installed in the vehicle. The pairing procedure is only required when a new phone is introduced to the ULF system for the very first time or the list of paired devices is cleared form the memory of the ULF module, it does not need to be performed every time the phone is used with the system.

After pairing, the mobile phone is recognized automatically by the ULF control module within 45 seconds after it is introduced into the vehicle and the ignition is turned on.

Note: Depending on the mobile phone manufacturer, particular care must be taken prior to initial operation to ensure that no headset is coupled with the mobile phone. Various devices may interpret the ULF control module as a headset and request deactivation of the headset. Please refer to the operating instructions of the mobile phone for detailed information.

Pairing Procedure

The pairing procedure that must be initiated through the phone will differ corresponding to the different menu configurations of the various BluetoothTM mobile phones on the market. The user’s manual of the phone manufacturer should always be referenced for specific steps on how to activate the BluetoothTM feature and to pair/link devices.

The following steps are generalized steps that should help in activating the BluetoothTM function of most phones:

IN VEHICLE:

1. Depress the send /receive (pairing) button located in the center console, for at least 1 second prior to switching on the ignition and continue to hold the button down for approximately 2- 3 seconds after the ignition is turned on.
