Is there a remote that can be clipped into the steering? I can imagine you can do a voice dial hands-free, but how to you take a incoming call?

When a call comes in, The oradster will tell you who it is if they are in your phone book on the phone. It will then prompt you to say whether you want to answer the call of ignore it. After you say answer you shouuld say hello.

No Remote. The unit has a "Talk" Button, you push it to place or take a call.

You speak "Answer" or "Ignore" when the unit gets a call and asks you what to do. You can also press the "phone" button on the unit.

The device connects with your phone and Erik sync your contact list. When a call comes in, it announces who the caller is and you have the option to say accept or decline the call. It's pretty slick

The devise clips on the visor. It will announce the call and give you the option of answer or ignore. You respond verbally and then answer the call . It has a microphone and speaker. Mine works very well. I have had the original one for about 3 years. It finally gave up the ghost I and I bought another just like it. I have never used the voice dial feature a I don't like to be on the phone when driving.

Device projects the ringing signal then voice asks "in coming call from Bob Jones would you like to answer or refuse call?" If I say yes then I am connected to the caller and may start talking. I do have an iPhone and enabled voice commands so I can't tell you if it is the Roadster or my iPhone speaking?

The CR1210 has it's own Bluetooth/hands-free phone support. It works well. My iPhone synched up instantly and I was able to transfer my contact list with one touch on the onscreen menu. The CR1210 also has a built in USB port and auxiliary input port just like the OEM stereo does. It also supports the steering wheel stereo controls (make sure you plug in the brown connector). The only thing it doesn't support is the Bluetooth microphone in the A pillar. However, they provide you with a microphone of their own that works well. You just have to run the wire. If you want SiriusXM, then you have to purchase the SiriusXM SXV300v1 Connect Vehicle Tuner Kit for Satellite Radio from Amazon. The satellite menu comes right up on the CR1210. I've been very pleased with this unit. It works well and looks OEM. The GPS software works great. The only downside is that the directions aren't all that good. The best information can be found on the wiring schematic label on the top of the device. There is also a good Youtube video (Google-- CR1210 installation jeep jk). Hope this helps.

If you mean - make hands free phone calls - then you cannot. I'm disappointed too, there's no commands for it, perhaps an update will allow this in the future

No remote, as it has no battery or steering components. We discovered that it works with a flashlight held right above it if very direct sun is not available.

Hello, Re calling out- that is done from your mobile phone or computer. I suppose if you had voice recognition on your cell/computer, you could call out but I think you'd still have to touch your phone. There is no keypad on this headset.Re incoming calls- push the silver button on side of headaet or use your phone to answer.Instructions so good I didn't need to use them. :)

Yes. You can make a call from the bluetooth headset. Click the call button on the headset and it will allow you to make voice commands.

This device only transmits the audio of whatever is running (phone call, Pandora, etc) to your radio. It has no hands-free option. It's the same as using speakerphone option but it plays thru your car speakers.

Mine didnt voice dial initially. However, if you have an iphone and do the most recent software upgrade, you get a SIRI dial screen and you can use SIRI to do whatever SIRI doesAlso Im not sure who told you the 940 does it all, it was the low end model of the NAV series. Its does a ton of things, esp in regards to sound shaping and listening options, but the 7" and 8" Alpines NAV decks have more features (free traffic, ), but no voice dial, until the 2014 SIRI upgrade

It works like a Bluetooth in your car you push a button on it and say your command. It also has caller id when someone calls it will say whatever name is in your phone and then ask you ignore or answer.

Hi Sarah, I know that you can use Siri to make calls through the system, but I have an iphone 5. You can also setup "speed dial" on the stereo itself using the preset station buttons for the numbers that you dial frequently, which I found very useful. Hope this helps.

I do not have the bluetooth control on my FJ steering wheel but in order to get my volume / channel up and down to work I had to go into the set up menu in the stereo and select a unit number for my FJ to get it to work. Not sure if there is a unit number for bluetooth for hands free on the steering wheel ? also I have had complaints from people that I call on the stereo's blue tooth about it sounding distorted and that could be the portable mic for the unit.

This device pairs with your phone and uses your phone book. Once paired with your phone push the phone button on the device and you here please say a command. So yes to voice command dialing.

I do not have that feature on my steering wheel, so I can not be of help on that. Sorry..., but I do love my Alpine. Easy to operate, sound great.

To be honest, I don't use a lot of voice commands, so I can not give you an good answer, just use the mic for conversations while I'm driving and works fine...

I am not a technician, but I'm pretty sure there is no navigation or gps option on this model, one reason why its so cheap. I can hook my smartphone up thru the auxiliary input and using the gps on my phone screen the voice commands play thru the cars speakers. I think thats as close as you can get without spending a ton of money on a unit thats navigation ready or the gps adapter kit they sell for this model.
