Telephone system help required.

[OscarVictorZulu]

Afternoon all,

 

I have just bought this car and so am trying to work out how all the toys work,,,

 

I am attempting to pair the car to my mobile. Following the instruction book (publication Part No. JJM 10 31 99 552), I have switched the ignition on.  The book says that the screen message "HANDSET" should be displayed but it isn't showing that.

 

It says that, after a brief system check, that I should see SIG displayed on the screen. It doesn't show that either.

 

I've gone to the bluetooth settings on my phone and asked it to search for devices but it comes up with nothing.

 

Does this mean that, even though all these phone buttons are on my dash, the car doesn't neccesarily have the telephone equipment (it has a CD changer button but a search of the boot, under seats, or glove box has failed to locate it), or that it is broken, or simply that I'm an inept techno-idiot?

 

Attached is a photo of the dash.

 

Thanks in advance

The CDC, if you had one, would be immediately obvious on the left had side of the boot. As would the DVD drive if you had sat nav.

 

If your phone doesn't detect any bluetooth signal from the car then either it wasn't fitted or the bluetooth module is kaput.

 

bluetooth handsfree is an easy retrofit if required and would work as an integral part of your audio system.

 

Do you have a microphone in the roof just to the right of the roof console? If not, then you don't have the bluetooth phone system.

 

Do you have Jaguar Voice?

[OscarVictorZulu]

I will go and look for a microphone. What is Jaguar Voice?

 

Thanks.

[Raistlin]

Jaguar Voice is voice control of various functions of the car. You will have a small telephone symbol on the audio control switches on the left hand side of the steering wheel. If you press that button and it mutes your audio for a second or two, that suggests Jaguar Voice.

 

The microphone will be immediately obvious on a 2007 model car. Earlier cars had it installed within the overhead console but yours will be easily visible David :)

 

Clearly, if you don't have the microphone then you won't have bluetooth or JV.

I should have all mine fitted at weekend and I will try to take pics of step by step installation

I should have all mine fitted at weekend and I will try to take pics of step by step installation for anybody thinking of having it done. That is Satnav touchscreen, Bluetooth, voice control, CDC ect. Paul I thought if you press the voice button it gives you a verbal command?

Part numbers would be gratefully received too.

Look forward to your how to post.

[Raistlin]

Phil, pressing the Voice button mutes the audio and awaits an instruction.

Is this the microphone?

Behind the round slatted hole?

 

The steering wheel has the voice button.

[Raistlin]

Yes, it is.

[Mr Lawrence]

I thought that was one of the alarm perimetric sensors??

There's two in the top unit if my memory's correct.

[Raistlin]

In fact you are right Andy.

 

I first looked at the picture on my phone so couldn't see the detail.

[OscarVictorZulu]

I guess my car doesn't have a microphone then. So no telephone kit either. Never mind; I think I'd rather not have people calling me and hassling me whilst I'm in the car. I get enough of that when I'm at work!

[Raistlin]

If you did want to have the facility, it is a fairly simple retro-fit David.
