Operation
The call volume in the vehicle can be increased or decreased during the call by short
presses on the volume up or down key. Once you have reached the end of the scale,
you will hear a beep to signal that you have reached the minimum or maximum volume
level.
Sound Quality
The system uses the highest quality components and latest DSP (digital signal processing)
to give you the best possible sound quality for the caller and receiver. A few things must
be remembered though to give you the best results:
a. Road Noise The faster you drive the more background noise exists and the
lower the sound quality will be for your caller. The system has excellent DSP to reduce
the noise but closing your windows etc. will help.
b. Echo Cancellation The system has excellent echo cancellation to prevent
the caller hearing themselves back through the kit. To give the best quality for your caller,
try and have the volume at the lowest level which you can still easily hear them. This
helps reduce any echo effects.
c. Talk at a normal level With some older phone systems you had to yell at
the system for people to hear you. This system uses the latest in sensitive microphones
to allow you to talk at a normal level. If you yell at the system then your voice will be
reduced in volume by the DSP and you may even sound quieter. Just talk at a normal
level and your caller will easily be able to hear you.

Operation
If you dial a number on the keypad of your mobile phone, it could be possible you hear
the key tones over the speakers. The speakers will remain muted for a period of 2
seconds after you press a key, if you don’t press the next key or “SEND” button within
these 2 seconds, the Mute will be deactivated and the sound of your radio will be heard
over the speakers. If you experience any inconvenience, we advise you to set keysound
to “silent” in your handset menu.
Dial tones and speaker mute note
IMPORTANT: If you arrive at your destination during a call, it may be necessary
to transfer the call back to your handset. Normally the call will be transferred
back to your handset automatically when you turn off your vehicle, but it is
possible with older mobile phones that the call gets disconnected. To avoid
this from happening if you experience this, hold the CARBT Dial button for 4
seconds until you hear 2 beeps. (Transfer a call to handset on page 3)
After you enter the car and turn the ignition on, the system will link with your phone
connect you have to reconnect using your connection menu in your mobile phone.
