Phone Button

What is the phone button for on the Audiophile radio

[smotrs]

Mute. Pressing it mutes the stereo or lowers the volume to a point where it's barely audible while using the phone.

That is what I thought..
But it does neither..
When you press it the word
No Phone
Come up on display

Does the Audiophile have built in Bluetooth? Maybe you need to pair the phone with the stereo? I am just curious if the Audiophile could have built in Bluetooth?

I dont think it has built in, but Ford has a unit that plugs in and uses the stereo for the speakers for handsfree. I think it is a Bluetooth plug in, and utilizies the Phone button then.

Wonder what parts are needed.

I saw it I think on Ford's dealer accessory website.

Sorry, you need the Mobile-Ease Ford Accessory, once you have that hooked up, it then allows you to connect a phone to the system and use the button to mute the stereo.

Thanks...been awhile since I saw it and couldn't remember the name of it.

Thank you! This is great info, as I was unaware of if the Bluetooth was built in or an added option. Now I know!
