feedback is directly related to the volume, turn down the

About the Hands-Free Phone
Hands-free calls are possible when using a HSP (Head Set
Profile) and HFP (Hands-Free Profile) compatible mobile
phone with a ALPINE BLUETOOTH compatible CD Head
Unit, AV Head Unit or Digital Media Receiver.
•Avoid performing a hands-free call in heavy traffic or on
narrow or winding streets.
• Close the windows while calling to reduce background
noise.
• If both calling parties are using hands-free devices, or the
call is made in a noisy location, difficulty hearing the other
person’s voice is normal.
• Depending on telephone line conditions or certain mobile
devices used, voices may sound unnatural.
• When using a microphone, speak as directly as you can
into the microphone to pick up the best sound quality.
• Certain mobile phone features are dependent on the
capabilities and settings of your service provider’s
network. Additionally, certain features may not be
activated by your service provider, and/or the provider’s
network settings may limit the feature’s functionality.
Always contact your service provider about feature
availability and functionality.
