Pairing: Your compatible Bluetooth phone must be paired with the KCE-350BT before it will work. Up to five devices can be paired to the adapter at once; numbered 1-4, plus Guest Mode. The Guest Mode is for temporary pairing; that device is deleted when the ignition is turned off.

Placing Calls: The exact feature package varies based on the Alpine head unit and your phone model; generally the following are available:

• Redial: press the phone button within 5 seconds of ending a call
• Call History: the 10 previously dialed, received or missed numbers can be retrieved and dialed from memory
• Phonebook: up to 1,000 entries can be downloaded from your phone
• Voice Dialing: if you have a voice-dial capable phone, you can dial a phone contact just by speaking the name of your contact (2008 AV headunits only)

Receiving Calls: When you receive a call, the caller ID information is displayed on the head unit. You can set the phone, or KCE-350BT to answer the call automatically. If you prefer answering manually, it only requires pressing the phone button.

Microphone: The supplied microphone allows you to speak to the other party on the telephone call hands-free. The microphone comes with clips and hardware for a variety of mounting options. The microphone measures 0.565" in diameter and 1.325" long. The microphone has an attached 9.5' cable which plugs into the Bluetooth interface module.

Active Noise Cancellation Circuitry: The unit's Active Noise Cancellation Circuitry cancels out unwanted noise and irritating echo, even at high sound system volumes for a clear phone conversation.

Mute: When you make or receive a call, the audio from the stereo is muted. When using the Bluetooth interface, no other device can be used with the mute (interrupt) function.

Bluetooth Streaming Audio: You can also listen to streaming audio from your phone or other Bluetooth audio devices through the interface. Some devices with streaming audio functionality also have command and control protocols, allowing you to use the head unit's buttons for play, pause, previous track, and next track commands.

Note: The Apple iPhone does not stream music audio wirelessly through Bluetooth.

iPod: Although the KCE-350BT uses the iPod Full Speed jack on the head unit, a second Full Speed jack on the interface allows connection of your iPod to your Alpine headunit using the optional KCE-422i cable (sold separately).
