Mobile Phone Operation with Bluetooth
®
Answer Incoming Phone Calls
This handheld radio, once properly paired and connected to
your Bluetooth
®
compatible mobile phone, can answer incoming
calls received on your mobile phone. It can act as the speaker and
microphone, while your mobile phone stays safe and dry. It will
also improve audio quality on both ends of the conversation.
To Answer and End an Incoming Call:
1. The speaker will ring. The matrix will display
ANSWER.
2. Press and release the Bluetooth button on the front
panel. After the call is answered, the matrix will
display IN CALL.
3. Begin conversation with the caller by a pressing the
PTT (Push to Talk) key and speaking into the small
microphone above the LCD. This is very similar to a
standard radio operation and it completely
eliminates all background noise when you are not
speaking.
NOTE
To enable hands-free conversation or “VOX” mode
(pressing in the PTT key not required), use the
Channel Up and Channel Down keys anytime when
in Bluetooth mode. The “VOX” icon will turn on when
VOX mode is enabled.
The Bluetooth “VOX” setting does NOT reset to Off
after a power cycle unlike the normal VOX associated
with VHF mode.
4. To end a call, press and release the Bluetooth button.
The radio will then return to previous Standby mode
and resume normal operation.
