Switching On/Off; Volume Control - BMW Protection Serie Manual De Instrucciones

Intercom
*
The car's safety glass windows make it
much more difficult to hear what is go-
ing on outside.
To communicate with someone outside
the car without having to lower a win-
dow or open a door, an intercom sys-
tem is provided. It is ready for use as
soon as you have entered the car.
The system remains operational if the
ignition is switched off:
> in ignition key positions 1 and 2 only
while the doors remain shut
> for about 15 minutes after removing
the ignition key.

Switching on/off

Press button 1. Light-emitting diode 2
indicates readiness for use.
When the intercom is switched on, the
remaining loudspeakers inside the car
(radio, cassette or CD replay, TV sound)
are muted.
Listening
Sound from outside the car is picked up
by microphones in both outside mirrors
and can be heard automatically through
loudspeaker 4 after switching the inter-
com on. Sound from inside the car is
not transmitted to the outside.
Speaking
Hold "Speak" button 5 down. If you
speak into microphone 3, what you say
will be heard outside from loudspeakers
that are concealed in the front and rear
bumpers.

Volume control

The volume can be continuously varied
at knurled wheel 6.
The higher the volume control setting,
the more sensitively the intercom reacts
to wind noise when the car is in motion,
and feedback effects (whistling sound).
The intercom can only be used for
alternate speaking and listening,
not for both functions at the same time.
The car's windows and doors should be
closed when using the intercom, to pre-
vent feedback between the loudspeak-
ers and the microphone (whistling
sound).<
