I cannot send a tone with my bluetooth phone. So when the number called responds 'press one for English', I have to pull out the actual phone and hit 1. Very distracting when driving.

On page 151 of the 2008 Nav System owner's manual it gives instructions:- (during a call)
Sending a Tone:-
*'pull the talk switch'
*'say a string of single digits...'
But, when I pull the talk switch, there is no response.

Also, page 152-3 of the manual states:-
When talking on the phone, you can do the following operations:-
*Adjust volume
*mute
*to send a tone touch 0 - 9

Sending a tone:-
*'Touch the desired number to send a tone'
However, the button '0 -9' is greyed out, so I never get to the screen 'Touch Tone'
(This feature is supposed to be available only when the car is stationary. But I can't use it at all.)

Any help would be appreciated.

 

good question....maybe you can hit the 'voice command' button to say '1' during the call???

 

According to the book, you should be able to do this. But when I try, there's no response.
I don't know if this is a phone problem, or something wrong with the car.

 

you need to press the "0-9" button on the screen first and then use the talk switch. it kind of sucks how it's set up but that's how it's done.
