Bluetooth® Audioí
qWhat is Bluetooth® Audio?
Bluetooth®audio outline
By programming portable audio devices
equipped with the Bluetooth
®
communication function to the vehicle's
Bluetooth®unit, you can listen to music
or audio recorded on these audio devices
from the vehicle's speakers. Bluetooth
®
audio devices do not need to be plugged
into the auxiliary jack.
After programming, operate the audio
system's control panel or the 7-inch
navigation system to play/stop the music
or audio.
CAUTION
ØAlways program audio devices to
the Bluetooth®audio system
while the vehicle is stopped.
ØBecause only specified Bluetooth
®
audio devices can be used, consult
an Authorized Mazda Dealer when
purchasing or changing devices.
Bluetooth
®audio devices which
correspond to specified
Bluetooth
®versions and profiles
can be Bluetooth®-connected to
the vehicle's Bluetooth®unit.
However, even among these
devices are ones which cannot be
Bluetooth
®-connected or have
limited functionality. Each device
to be used with the vehicle's
Bluetooth
®unit needs to be
checked individually for
compatibility. Consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer
concerning device compatibility.

Profile) Ver. 1.0
lAVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control
Profile) Ver. 1.0/1.3
A2DP is a profile which transmits only
audio to the Bluetooth
®unit. If your
Bluetooth®audio device corresponds only
to A2DP, but not AVRCP, you cannot
operate it using the control panel of the
vehicle's audio or 7-inch navigation
systems. In this case, the Bluetooth
®
audio device can be operated by
controlling the device itself, the same as
when a portable audio system without the
Bluetooth
®communication function is
connected to the AUX terminal.

lThe system may not operate normally
depending on the Bluetooth®audio device.lTo make sure that your Bluetooth®audio
device is Ver. 1.0 or 1.3, refer to the
Owner's Manual for the Bluetooth
®audio
device.
lIt may not be possible to play a Bluetooth®
audio device if it is placed anywhere
transmission is compromised, such as
inside a metal container or the trunk. Move
the Bluetooth
®audio device to a location
where transmission is possible.
lBattery consumption of Bluetooth®audio
devices is higher while Bluetooth®-
connected.
lIf a non-Bluetooth®device is to be used, a
commercially-available Bluetooth®adapter
is required. When playing an audio device
with a Bluetooth
®adapter installed,
programming of the audio device may not
be possible or audio may not be heard from
the vehicle speakers if the connection of the
adapter and the device is poor. If this
happens, check if the Bluetooth
®adapter is
properly connected.

Bluetooth®audio device programming
Any Bluetooth
®audio device must be
programmed to the vehicle's Bluetooth®
unit before it can be listened to over the
vehicle's speakers.
A maximum of seven devices including
Bluetooth
®audio devices and hands-free
mobile phones can be programmed to one
vehicle.NOTE
lAlways perform Bluetooth®audio device
programming while the vehicle is stopped.
lIf a Bluetooth®device has already been
programmed to the vehicle as a hands-free
mobile phone, it does not need to be
programmed again when using the device
as a Bluetooth
®audio device. Conversely, it
does not need to be programmed again as a
hands-free mobile phone if it has already
been programmed as a Bluetooth
®audio
device.
lLook around to be sure other likely
Bluetooth®audio devices are not in range
when you start to program. If in doubt,
move your car to another location. The
transmission range of a Bluetooth
®audio
device is about 10 m (32 ft). Therefore, if
there is another Bluetooth
®audio device
within a 10 m (32 ft) radius of the vehicle,
the device may be identified and
programmed instead.
lDevice registration can also be done using
voice recognition (page 6-77).
Concerning the operation of a Bluetooth®
audio device itself, refer to its instruction
manual.
Some Bluetooth
®audio devices have PIN
codes (four digits). Refer to the audio
device's instruction manual because the
programming procedure differs depending
on whether it has a PIN code or not.
Programming a Bluetooth®audio
device which has a four-digit PIN code
1. Using the audio control dial, select the
pairing program mode
“PAIR DEVICE”in the“BT SETUP”
mode. (Refer to“Bluetooth
®audio
device set-up”for details.)

2. Press the audio control dial to
determine the mode.
After“ENTER PIN”is displayed on
the information display for two
seconds,“PIN 0000”is displayed and
the PIN code can be input.
3. Input the PIN code of your Bluetooth
®
audio device by pressing channel
preset buttons 1 to 4 while“PIN 0000”
is displayed.
Press channel preset button 1 to input
the first digit, 2 for the second, 3 for
the third, and 4 for the forth. For
example, if the PIN code were“4213”,
press channel preset button 1 four
times (1, 2, 3, 4), button 2 twice (1, 2),
button 3 once (1), and button 4 three
times (1, 2, 3). If the“PIN 0000”
display disappears before finishing the
PIN code input, repeat the procedure
from Step 1.
NOTE
Some devices accept only a particular pairing
code (Usually,“0000”or“1234”).
If pairing cannot be completed, refer to the
owner's manual of your mobile device, and try
those numbers if necessary.
4. Press the audio control dial while the
input PIN code is displayed.
“PAIRING”flashes on the display.
5. Operate the Bluetooth
®audio device
and set it to the program mode while
“PAIRING”is flashing.
6. When the programming is completed,
“
”and“PAIR SUCCESS”are
displayed after about 10-30 seconds,
after which“PAIR SUCCESS”
continues to be displayed for three
seconds, and then the unit returns to the
normal display.NOTE
lSome Bluetooth®audio devices need a
certain amount of time before the“
”
symbol is displayed.
lIf the programming failed,“Err”flashes
for three seconds then it returns to the
normal display.
lProgramming cannot be performed while
the vehicle is moving. If you attempt to
perform programming while the vehicle is
moving,“PAIR DISABLE”is displayed and
it returns to the normal display.
lIf seven Bluetooth®audio devices have
already been programmed to the vehicle,
programming cannot be performed and
“MEMORY FULL”is displayed. Delete
one programmed device to program
another one.
Programming a Bluetooth®audio
device which does not have a four-digit
PIN code
1. Using the audio control dial, select the
