For information on compatible mobile phones, please visit www.porsche.com or contact your Porsche Centre. Telephone module in HFP mode: the use of a mobile phone inside a vehicle may cause in increase in the interior electromagnetic field strength and, accordingly, in the electromagnetic radiation to which passengers are exposed. Use of the telephone module for PCM via Bluetooth, SAP connection or with a SIM card inserted prevents exposure to electromagnetic radiation as only the vehicle’s external aerial is used. 3) Mobile phone preparation: the use of a mobile phone inside a vehicle may cause in increase in the interior electromagnetic field strength and, accordingly, in the electromagnetic radiation to which passengers are exposed. If a cradle is used to mount the mobile phone, the field strength inside the vehicle can be reduced by connecting to the exterior aerial (depending on how specific mobile phones connect to the cradle). For more information about the availability of a cradle for your mobile phone, please contact the trade. Use of the telephone module for PCM via Bluetooth, SAP connection or with a SIM card inserted prevents exposure to electromagnetic radiation as only the vehicle’s external aerial is used. 1)
