Having been playing with my baby for a few months and going over the Owner's and Navigation manuals, there are a few things I still just CANNOT figure out, so I'm gonna do a couple of posts and see if our collective knowledge can solve them. I'm betting they will lead to others' questions so I refuse to feel too piggish in seeking our collective HELP!
So, first one is: iPhone as default for an incoming call.
My iPhone 5 works perfectly with my car EXCEPT that calls do not automatically default to playing through the CAR. In the car my iPhone goes right in the chargers-slot in front of the shift [fits perfectly per help from one of us] and often BUT NOT ALWAYS gets plugged into the USB port to charge [on a short cord I got at suggestion of one of us!
]
When a call comes in, it shows on the NAV screen but MOST OF THE TIME when I press Accept, instead of automatically playing THROUGH THE CAR, it plays ON THE PHONE. "HandsFree" to switch to the car will show as an option on the NAV screen, but I don't see why, when the phone is in the car plugged in or not IT DOESN'T AUTOMATICALLY PLAY THROUGH THE CAR WHEN I HIT ACCEPT.
I'm not sure if whether car or phone picks it up changes depending on if it's plugged in to charge or not, or if this is irrelevant to problem.
The ONLY thing the Nav Manual says is on p. 96, "If you want to switch the call to the mobile while talking on the car handsfree, press [Use Private] {which is what is shown on the NAV screen}. If you want to switch the call to the car handsfree while talking on the mobile phone, press [Use Handsfree] {which is what shows on the NAV screen.
HELP me make CAR the default choice?! THANKS
