Routing Calls Through a Bluetooth Headset, Car Kit, or iPhone
After you’ve paired a Bluetooth device to work with iPhone, you must make a
connection to have iPhone use the device for your calls.
When iPhone is connected to a Bluetooth device, all outgoing calls are routed through
the device by default. Incoming calls are routed through the device if you answer using
the device, and through iPhone if you answer using iPhone. In some cases, your
contacts list transfers to the car kit and you can start a call by looking up a contact on
the car kit’s display.
iPhone can be connected with only one Bluetooth device at a time.

automatically when you start the car (if you have iPhone with you and Bluetooth is
turned on).
