50. Can I use these small loose wires to install the Parrot?
o The White/Brown and Red/Black pairs is a low-level (750mVrms/600 ohm)
line output and will not be able to drive a standard speaker. The line-level
outputs are only used for expert-level custom integrations or when the radio
has a line-level phone input.
51. Why don't my pictures show up on the caller ID? My phone was able to sync the
contacts, but the photos I have on associated with the contact are not showing up on
the 3200.
o Most phones will not automatically synchronize the picture associated with a
contact to the kit. However, the kit will allow pictures to be sent to the kit to
be associated with a contact. This can be done by the following procedure:
On the kit go to Settings –> Contacts Management –> Phonebook
Management –> Select a contact –> Select Associate Photo. This will
put the car kit in picture receiving mode. All that needs to be done at
this point is to push a picture over from another Bluetooth device
(computer, phone, PDA, etc.)
52. How do I send wallpapers to the car kit?
o To send a wallpaper to the car kit, the kit must be in picture receiving mode.
To do this go to Settings –> Display –> Wallpaper –> Add new Wallpaper. A
picture may now be sent from another Bluetooth device (computer, phone,
PDA, etc.) to the kit.
53. What are the specifications for a wallpaper image?
o A wallpaper must be in the JPEG format, be less than 994.8kB, and have a
resolution of 1600 x 1200 or less. Please keep in mind that the max size also
depends on how much memory is available on the kit.
54. What are the specifications for a contact’s image?
o A contact’s picture must be in the JPEG format, be less than 29.5kB, and have
a resolution of 640 x 480 or less.
55. Will I void my warranty if I cut into the factory system?
o In the United States you will not void your warranty. This is protected by the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (P.L. 93-637), federal statue (15 U.S.C. § 2301 et seq.)
56. How can the car kit be installed so that my OnStar will still work?
o If your car has built in OnStar, whether active or inactive. You will need to
install the car kit using the GM Cell V2 harness by Soundgate. This will
ensure that your OnStar's emergency features will still work even while on the
phone. Even if your OnStar is “inactive” they system will still send an
emergency signal if your airbags go off. Without this special harness the
operators will be unable to hear anyone in the vehicle and will automatically
send EMS. If it ends up being a non-emergency this could result in a hefty
fine.
o You will want to utilize the microphone that comes with the Parrot kit for
audio, and not splice in your OnStar microphone. The background noise
