The Nissan Blue Tooth adapter will work with any phone that has blue tooth functionality Quote
MarkW Posted December 25, 2006 Posted December 25, 2006 Works fine with my Sony Ericsson W800i, I seem to remember i had to change something on my phone to get it to work tho. It doesnt work very well for me though over about 30/40mph as the road noise from the car makes it difficult for the person on the other end to hear you clearly. Quote

I've had this combo for about 4 weeks and it's working great, no worries. Voice dialling works fine for me. All the voice dial functions/memory are held by the car, so if you have used your BT adapter with another phone and want to use the same stored names with your new one, that will work. The K800i by default switches off BT when it disconnects from the Z, which helps battery life as I always used to forget before. I got the Z hooked up to my Nokia work mobi and my personal Sony (can only use one at once though). True about the road noise and I've had some complaints of "feedback" also (phone near a speaker maybe). Quote

Imho the built-in phone system is just plain CRAP I find it even worse with the NISMO zorst. If I'm doing over 70 I can forget making a call..... Quote
JimmyJam75 Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 I use the K800i and BT adapter combo and it seems to work fine. although i also have the issue of not being able to recognise voice commands on certain roads / over certain speeds due to back ground noise. Quote

charlie_dw Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 Does anyone know how to get the voice activation working (just got the BT kit as a xmas pressie!)? Is it something you setup on the car or on the phone? If its the phone, don't think i'll be able to use the voice controls as i have a motorola razor Oh well, excuse to upgrade phone Quote

Trev-the-Rev Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 You need to firstly activate Bluetooth on your phone and then follow the set up instructions in your handbook. Quote

M13KYF Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 you may have a old manual which your dealer should have updated. I was in the same position instructions are here. Covers everything you need to know http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2713 Quote
charlie_dw Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 Great, thanks Mike. Having trouble downloading the manual from the link though. I assume it's a pdf file and I do have Acrobat. Do you know any other way I can access it? Quote
M13KYF Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 try right click on the download and save it to your desktop. If that fails let me know and i'll email it to you. Also have you the latest ver of Acrobat reader Quote
charlie_dw Posted January 2, 2007 Posted January 2, 2007 That's done the job! Thanks again Mike Quote
