The
Range Rover Bluetooth system is a BRAND NEW system
from BMW that allows
you to use most any Bluetooth
compatible cellular phone in your 2003-2004 US Or 2002-2004 Euro Range
Rover. The Range Rovers manufacturered within this time
period were based on the BMW system and incorporate the BMW computer
system. This system can be easily upgraded to the BMW
bluetooth system using our custom retrofit kit.
Bluetooth is a new
function of the latest cellular phones that allows you to wirelessly
connect your cellular phone to other accessories such as a laptop or
wireless headset. BMW'sBluetooth system takes advantage of
this functionality to allow you to use your standard Bluetooth enabled
phone in your Range Rover providing safe hands-fee operation
while
driving, plus some additional features such as voice control of your
cellular phone and navigation system (if equipped).
The nice
thing about
Bluetooth is you do not need to physically connect your
cellular phone to your Range Rover. You can keep
your phone
in your pocket or purse and still use all of the
functions.
With
the BMW
Bluetooth cellular phone system you can use the Range Rover steering
wheel and
radio controls or navigation controls to navigate your cellular phone
phonebook, dial numbers,
increase volume, etc. The system also allows for the voice
control of your cellular phone, voice control of your navigation system
and notepad (to save a message to yourself for later
replay)
Bluetooth
uses a short range wireless (30 ft) system to communicate between your
compatible Bluetooth phone to the Bluetooth phone system allowing you
to
place and receive calls, initiate voice recognition commands for phone
(such as voice tags or numeric entry), navigation (if equipped), and
notepad. Complete phone and navigation controls are
detailed HERE.
The system will fully integrate into your Range Rover without the need
for a
wired connection between the phone and BMW. Images such as
shown above are with optional "snap in adapters" that charge and boost
the antenna signal to the roof antenna. The
Bluetooth system shows your Bluetooth Phone's phonebook, last numbers
dialed, SMS and call details on Navigation screen, Radio Display plus
phone book on the instrument cluster if the proper hands-free
protocol is supported by your Bluetooth phone (some older Bluetooth
phones do not include all of the Bluetooth profiles see BMW approved
list HERE).
Since our Bluetooth kit uses BMW Original
Equipment, your Bluetooth phone will be fully integrated into your
Range Rover's
system allowing you to place and receive calls via the steering wheel
or other Range Rover phone control buttons. Our
Bluetooth system fully integrates into your Range Rover to operate just
exactly
as it would if the car was manufactured from Land Rover with this
technology.
The
system uses most of the new Bluetooth phones available from your
cellular carrier. BMW approved phone details can be
found HERE.
