phone preparation or telephone module with cordless handset in HFP mode: The use of a mobile phone inside a car may cause an
increase in the interior electromagnetic field strength and, accordingly, in the electromagnetic radiation to which passengers are exposed
(within the permissible limit values for mobile phones). If a cradle is used to mount the mobile phone, the field strength in the passenger
compartment can be reduced because the phone can be connected up to the external aerial (feature depends on how specific mobile
phones connect to the cradle). For information about the availability of a cradle for your mobile phone (only in conjunction with mobile
phone preparation), please contact your Porsche Centre. The use of the telephone module for PCM via Bluetooth ® SAP connection or with
inserted SIM card helps to prevent exposure to electromagnetic radiation as only the car’s external aerial is ever used.
