ANTENNA

Trunk mounted antenna

Removing the antenna:
You can remove the antenna if necessary.

Hold the bottom of the antenna and
remove by turning counterclockwise.

To install the antenna, turn the antenna
clockwise and tighten.

CAUTION

.

To avoid damaging or deforming the
antenna, be sure to remove the antenna

under the following conditions.

— The vehicle enters an automatic car

wash.

— The vehicle enters a garage with a

low ceiling.

— The vehicle is covered with a car

cover.

.

Always properly tighten the antenna rod
during installation. Otherwise, the an-
tenna rod may break during vehicle
operation.

When installing a car phone or a CB radio
in your vehicle, be sure to observe the
following cautions, otherwise the new
equipment may adversely affect the elec-
tronic control modules and electronic con-
trol system harness.

WARNING

.

A cellular phone should not be used for
any purpose while driving so full atten-
tion may be given to vehicle operation.
Some jurisdictions prohibit the use of
cellular phones while driving.

.

If you must make a call while your
vehicle is in motion, the hands-free
cellular phone operational mode (if so
equipped) is highly recommended. Ex-
ercise extreme caution at all times so full
attention may be given to vehicle opera-
tion.

.

If a conversation in a moving vehicle
requires you to take notes, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop your
vehicle before doing so.

Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

CAUTION

.

Keep the antenna as far away as
possible from the electronic control
modules.

.

Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in
(20 cm) away from the electronic control
system harness. Do not route the anten-
na wire next to any harness.

.

Adjust the antenna standing-wave ratio
as recommended by the manufacturer.

.

Connect the ground wire from the CB
radio chassis to the body.

.

For details, consult an INFINITI retailer.

WARNING

.

Use a phone after stopping your vehicle
in a safe location. If you have to use a
phone while driving, exercise extreme
caution at all times so full attention may
be given to vehicle operation.

.

If you find yourself unable to devote full
attention to vehicle operation while
talking on the phone, pull off the road
to a safe location and stop your vehicle
before doing so.

CAUTION

To avoid draining the vehicle battery, use a
phone after starting the engine.

Your INFINITI is equipped with Bluetooth

®

Hands-Free Phone System. If you are an
owner of a compatible Bluetooth

®

enabled

cellular phone, you can set up the wireless
connection between your cellular phone
and the in-vehicle phone module. With
Bluetooth

®

wireless technology, you can

make or receive a telephone call with your
cellular phone in your pocket.

Once a cellular phone is connected to the
in-vehicle phone module, no phone con-
necting procedure is required anymore.
Your phone is automatically connected
with the in-vehicle phone module when
the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position with the registered cellular phone
turned on and carried in the vehicle.

You can register up to 5 different Blue-
tooth

®

cellular phones in the in-vehicle

phone module. However, you can talk on
only one cellular phone at a time.

The INFINITI Voice Recognition system
supports the phone commands, so dialing
a phone number using your voice is
possible. For more details, see “INFINITI
Voice Recognition system (models with
navigation system)” (P.4-109).

Before using the Bluetooth

®

Hands-Free

Phone System, refer to the following notes.

. Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth

®

functions share the same frequency
band (2.4 GHz). Using the Bluetooth

®

and the wireless LAN functions at the
same time may slow down or discon-
nect the communication and cause
undesired noise. It is recommended
that you turn off the wireless LAN (Wi-
Fi) when using the Bluetooth

®

func-

Bluetooth

®

HANDS-FREE PHONE SYSTEM

(models with navigation system)

tions.

. Set up the wireless connection between

a compatible cellular phone and the in-
vehicle phone module before using the
Bluetooth

®

Hands-Free Phone System.

. Some Bluetooth

®

enabled cellular

phones may not be recognized by the
in-vehicle phone module. Please visit
www.InfinitiUSA.com/bluetooth for a
recommended phone list.

. You will not be able to use a hands-free

phone under the following conditions:
— Your vehicle is outside of the tele-

phone service area.

— Your vehicle is in an area where it is

difficult to receive radio waves; such
as in a tunnel, in an underground
parking garage, behind a tall build-
ing or in a mountainous area.

— Your cellular phone is locked in

order not to be dialed.

. When the radio wave condition is not

ideal or ambient sound is too loud, it
may be difficult to hear the other
person’s voice during a call.

. Immediately after the ignition switch is

pushed to the ON position, it may be
impossible to receive a call for a short
period of time.

. Do not place the cellular phone in an

area surrounded by metal or far away
from the in-vehicle phone module to
prevent tone quality degradation and
wireless connection disruption.

. While a cellular phone is connected

through the Bluetooth

®

wireless con-

nection, the battery power of the
cellular phone may discharge quicker
than usual.

. If the Bluetooth

®

Hands-Free Phone

System seems to be malfunctioning,
please visit www.InfinitiUSA.com/blue-
tooth for troubleshooting help.

. Some cellular phones or other devices

may cause interference or a buzzing
noise to come from the audio system
speakers. Storing the device in a
different location may reduce or elim-
inate the noise.

. Refer to the cellular phone Owner’s

Manual regarding the telephone pairing
procedure specific to your phone,
battery charging, cellular phone anten-
na, etc.

. The antenna display on the monitor will

not coincide with the antenna display
of some cellular phones.

. Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet

as possible to hear the caller’s voice
clearly as well as to minimize its
echoes.

. If reception between callers is unclear,

adjusting the incoming or outgoing call
volume may improve the clarity.
