Bluetooth question
I finally got a cell phone (Samsung SCH-U550) that has bluetooth capability but I am still a bluetooth novice. I figured out how to link the phone to a Samsung bluetooth earpiece but was wondering if the phone is also linkable to the bluetooth in my 2005 XKR. The previous owner did not have the Jaguar bluetooth handbook but I downloaded from the JaguarUSA website. My specific phone was not included on the drop down list of models supported for the 2005 at the website (closest matches are U470 and U700).
I guess I can either try linking and see what happens or just go to the local Jaguar dealer for help? Any other advice?
Thanks,
Doug

RE: Bluetooth question
Another question. Assuming the phone pairs okay with the car system, my understanding is that you can hear the calling party through the audio speakers. But what about my voice? Is there some microphone somewhere so that I can talk without having to hold the handset? If not, then what is the point. The Bluetooth handbook I downloaded from the Jaguar website is not entirely clear on this subject.
Thanks,

RE: Bluetooth question
Well I don't see anything like what is shown in your jpg. I guess I will just go ahead and try the pairing procedure that is written in the Bluetooth handbook I downloaded from the Jaguar website. I really cannot find much regarding if telephone features were a standard item on the XKR in 2005 or if this was some dealer-installed option or accessory.

RE: Bluetooth question
The buttons on the dash are the same whether you have the installed phone or not. The phone system on the 05 XK's was using a technology that is no longer used by the major cell providers. If you have a phone installed, there will be a microphone on your header and there will be a phone cradle inside the center armrest. There are different versions of the main control box and the latest bluetooth module requires it to be one of the later ones. This is explained in detail on the installation manual available for download from Jaguar. There are also more than one different version of the bluetooth module. The latest should pair up with most current versions of bluetooth capable phones. Once paired, you can download your address file and it will integrate with your system through the sound system. As far as I can determine, the latest module is #C2S-49706. This is just the bluetooth module though and requires that you already have the phone system installed.

RE: Bluetooth question
It sounds like if the car presently does NOT have any of the phone equipment/modules, then it could be a considerable expense to have this stuff installed? I guess that would be a dumb expense given the fact that I already have a bluetooth headset for my phone so maybe I should forget about the expense and hassle of making the car a bluetooth device.

By the way, where did you find the part number for the module? Is there some website that lists part numbers for Jaguar stuff?

RE: Bluetooth question
Here are a couple of options that work great:

http://direct.motorola.com/ens/carkits/learn-T605.html

I have the T305, but of course I also have a Motorola phone. I think these will work with other Bluetooth products as well.
