The dual band function requires the installation of a compensator for the GSM-1800 network (A28/3) as well as the conversion of the antenna line (12) and installation of a power supply through a wiring harness for the E-net compensator (13).
The increased outlay required for conversion to the dual band function is to be discussed with the customer.
Vehicles with code 854 and Nokia 6150 cell phone are already equipped with a compensator for the GSM-1800 network (A28/3).
For conversion to the Nokia 6210 only the resistor from the conversion kit has to be connected to the compensator, the adapter mounted onto the cell phone holder, and the new D2B interface (A59/1) mounted. The interface for the Nokia 6210 only operates as from cell phone software release 4.36. All older Nokia 6210 models must undergo a software update.
