Your Questions Answered
Q. What is PTI?
A. PTI stands for Personal Telephone Integration, a fully integrated hands-free mobile phone system for your car via a Bluetooth link or cradle in the centre console.
Q. What is Bluetooth?
A. Bluetooth is the name for a short-range radio frequency (RF) technology that operates at 2.4 GHz and is capable of transmitting voice and data wirelessly. The effective range of Bluetooth devices is 32 feet (10 meters) and Bluetooth transfers data of a rate of 1 Mbps.
A Bluetooth connection gives greater convenience but gives a reduced feature set over that available
when a phone is docked in the cradle.
Q. Why is the technology called Bluetooth?
A. Bluetooth brand is named after the Danish King Harold 'Bluetooth' Blaatand who unified Denmark and Norway. In the beginning of the Bluetooth wireless technology era, Bluetooth was aimed at unifying the telecom and computing industries.
Q. How does the Land Rover PTI / Bluetooth functionality compare to other manufacturer?s
solutions?
A. The level of integration with the vehicle controls and PTI / Bluetooth features including phonebook
transfer facility (Cradle only) is competitive with other vehicle manufacture's Handsfree options. The
cradle solution allows such features as SMS on the Range Rover.
Q. How does the functionality differ from the previous Land Rover in-car fixed phone?
A. The level of integration is similar. The advantage of the Land Rover PTI / Bluetooth system is the fact that the personal mobile phone works both in and out of the car without the need to transfer the SIM card
Q. What is different about the Land Rover after sales Bluetooth accessory functionality?
A. The accessory system does not allow use of the vehicle touch screen or key pad, but does give Voice System interaction. This is a stand alone accessory system.
Q. Can a Bluetooth phone be kept in the owner?s pocket or bag?
A. Yes it can be located anywhere in the cabin. Whilst it may function from the boot (trunk), Land Rover do not recommend this, as the signal may be weaker in this enclosed environment.
Q. How many Bluetooth phones can be paired to a car at any time?
A. Eight (8) phones can be paired to the Land Rover PTI / Bluetooth system at any one time. This is
known as the Bluetooth device list. This list is in order of last connected phone, with the last connected phone at the top.
Only one phone can be connected at any one time.
Q. Can I connect a phone in the cradle whilst connected via Bluetooth?
A. Yes. When a phone is connected to the cradle, the Bluetooth connection will disconnect. A cradle
phone has priority over a Bluetooth phone.
Q. Once the phone is paired, what do I have to do each time to make the phone work in the car?
A. Every time you come back to the car, it should automatically reconnect to the paired phone. However, this depends on the settings in the handset. Please check the pairing and connection guide for details. The vehicle will automatically search for the last connected Bluetooth phone when the ignition is switch on and no phone is attached to the cradle. If the last connected Bluetooth phone is in range (and set to accept connections), the vehicle and phone will connect.
If the last connected phone is not in range, the vehicle will search for the next phone on the device list.
Q. How many phone numbers can be accessed via the vehicle system?
A. This is limited only by the number of entries that the phone/SIM card can store. No phone book entries are stored in the vehicle when a phone is not attached to the cradle. Voice Nametags in the Voice System however, are stored in the vehicle and are limited to approximately 50 entries.
Application: Phase 1 - Range Rover 2005MY
PTI Phone Module: XVJ 500042��
Land Rover Personal Telephone Integration (PTI)
Range Rover 2005MY offers a fully integrated mobile phone system as a factory fit option. With this
system, the user can connect a Land Rover approved mobile phone handset to the vehicle and access many of the important functions via the touch-screen display, voice activation and steering wheel switches.
��NOTE: Phone module XVJ500042 is replaced in the spare parts system by more recent
variants built to the latest specification. If a module is replaced, phone compatibility will
graduate to the level of specification in the NEW MODULE. The latest specification
modules for Range Rover 2006MY, Range Rover Sport and LR3 are covered separately in
Attachment 3.
Ways to Connect
The Land Rover PTI allows two different methods of connection:
First, there is the cradle option. This allows the mobile phone handset to be physically connected to the vehicle. This method offers much greater functionality such as; Phonebook access, Dialled and Missed Call lists and SMS. The cradle also provides power and connection to the external aerial.
The Land Rover PTI is also Bluetooth enabled. This allows the user the freedom to leave their mobile
phone handset in a briefcase, or a pocket and still be able to make and receive calls.
Please consult the Range Rover owners' handbook for more details on the functionality available with the two different connection methods.
Which Handsets and Software Versions?
Whilst there are many mobile phone handsets available, Land Rover engineers have tested and
recommended the following handsets to meet our very high quality standards. Please note that not all Bluetooth enabled mobile phone handsets are compatible with the Land Rover PTI. This is due to the wide range of uses for Bluetooth in the latest high technology. This list will be updated as more handsets are tested and as new handsets are released.

How the Phone and Vehicle Communicate.
Q. Does Bluetooth have to be enabled on the phone?
A. Yes, this can be done by following the phone handset instructions (refer to phone manufacturers
guide) or connection instructions provided by Land Rover.
Q. How do I know when a cradle phone is correctly connected to the car?
A. The phone handset will show a "car" or "headset" symbol to indicate it is in handsfree profile.
Also, when in phone mode, the audio head unit or touch screen will confirm a phone is correctly
connected via the cradle. This screen will show the network operator name and signal strength if the
phone is registered to the network.
If a phone is not registered to the network, "No Network" will be shown.
If a phone is not connected correctly to the cradle, the audio head unit or touch screen will display
"Phone Not Fitted" in the phone screen as detailed in the vehicle handbook.
Q. How do I know when a Bluetooth phone is connected to the car?
A. When in phone mode the audio head unit or touch screen will display "Bluetooth", as detailed in the vehicle handbook, when a Bluetooth phone is connected. Due to a limitation of Bluetooth, the signal strength is not displayed on the vehicle display.
Also, the phone handset will show a "car" or "headset" symbol to indicate it is in handsfree profile.
Q. Does the phone need to be switched on to work?
A. Yes ? Although if a phone that is switched off is connected to the cradle, it will automatically switch on.

Q. How many Bluetooth phones can be paired to a car at any time?
A. Eight (8) phones can be paired to the Land Rover PTI / Bluetooth system at any one time. This is
known as the Bluetooth device list. This list is in order of last connected phone, with the last connected phone at the top. Only one phone can be connected at any one time.
Q. Can I connect a phone in the cradle whilst connected via Bluetooth?
A. Yes. When a phone is connected to the cradle, the Bluetooth connection will disconnect. A cradle
phone has priority over a Bluetooth phone.

A. Every time you come back to the car, it should automatically reconnect to the paired phone.
However, this depends on the settings in the handset. Please check the pairing and connection guide
for details.
The vehicle will automatically search for the last connected Bluetooth phone when the ignition is
switch on and no phone is attached to the cradle. If the last connected Bluetooth phone is in range
(and set to accept connections), the vehicle and phone will connect.
If the last connected phone is not in range, the vehicle will search for the next phone on the device list.
Q. If a Bluetooth phone battery gets low or Bluetooth is turned off will the pairing be lost?
A. No, pairing need only be done once, and then the phone can be connected/disconnected as
frequently as the customer wishes. It is recommended that the customer keeps the phone battery
charged at all times ? some phones turn Bluetooth off automatically when the phone battery gets low.
