AUDIO SYSTEM
9. Bluetooth® AUDIO OPERATION
Bluetooth is a trademark owned by
Bluetooth SIG, Inc.
The Bluetooth® audio system enables
users to enjoy listening to music that is
played on a portable player on the ve-
hicle speakers via wireless communi-
cation.
This audio system supports
Bluetooth
®, a wireless data system
capable of playing portable audio
music without cables. If your portable
player does not support Bluetooth
®,
the Bluetooth
® audio system will not
function.
CAUTION
● Do not operate the player’s controls or
connect to the Bluetooth® audio system
while driving.
● Your audio unit is fitted with Bluetooth
®
antennas. People with implanted pace-
makers or cardiac defibrillators should
maintain a reasonable distance between
themselves and the Bluetooth
® anten-
nas. The radio waves may affect the
operation of such devices.
● Before using Bluetooth
® devices, users
of any electrical medical device other
than implanted pacemakers and
implanted cardiac defibrillators should
consult the manufacturer of the device
for information about its operation under
the influence of radio waves. Radio
waves could have unexpected effects on
the operation of such medical devices.
NOTICE
● Do not leave your portable player in the
vehicle. In particular, high temperatures
inside the vehicle may damage the por-
table player.
INFORMATION
●In the following conditions, the system
may not function:
• The portable player is turned off.
• The portable player is not connected.
• The portable player has a low battery.
● It may take time to connect the phone
when Bluetooth
® audio is being played.

® audio player. (See page
169.)
● When none of the selectable portable
players have been registered, a screen
confirming registration is displayed.
Registration method is the same as
phone registration. (See page 128.)
● When the currently connected portable
player is selected, a screen confirming
the selected player’s disconnection is
displayed. (See page 170.)
● If connection fails once, a changing con-
nection method confirmation screen is
displayed. If connection fails 2 or more
times, a message will be displayed.
When this message is displayed, try
again.
RECONNECTING THE

If the portable player is disconnected
due to poor reception from the
Bluetooth
® network when the
“POWER” switch is in ACCESSORY or
ON mode, the system automatically
reconnects the portable player.

11. AUDIO SYSTEM OPERATING HINTS
Fading and drifting stations: Generally, the
effective range of FM is about 25 miles (40
km). Once outside this range, you may no-
tice fading and drifting, which increase with
the distance from the radio transmitter.
They are often accompanied by distortion. Multi-path: FM signals are reflective, mak-
ing it possible for two signals to reach the
vehicle’s antenna at the same time. If this
happens, the signals will cancel each other
out, causing a momentary flutter or loss of
reception.
Static and fluttering: These occur when
signals are blocked by buildings, trees or
other large objects. Increasing the bass
level may reduce static and fluttering.
Station swapping: If the FM signal being
listened to is interrupted or weakened, and
there is another strong station nearby on
the FM band, the radio may tune in the
second station until the original signal can
be picked up again.
Fading: AM broadcasts are reflected by
the upper atmosphere — especially at
night. These reflected signals can interfere
with those received directly from the radio
station, causing the radio station to sound
alternately strong and weak.
Station interference: When a reflected sig-
nal and a signal received directly from a ra-
dio station are very nearly the same
frequency, they can interfere with each
other, making it difficult to hear the broad-
cast.
Static: AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high
tension power lines, lightening or electrical
motors. This results in static.

Cargo loaded on the roof luggage carrier,
especially metal objects, may adversely
affect the reception of XM Satellite Radio.
 Alternation or modifications carried out
without appropriate authorization may
invalidate the user’s right to operate the
equipment.
NOTICE
●To avoid damage to the audio system:
• Be careful not to spill beverages over
the audio system.
INFORMATION
● The use of a cellular phone inside or
near the vehicle may cause a noise from
the speakers of the audio system which
you are listening to. However, this does
not indicate a malfunction.
RADIO RECEPTION
Usually, a problem with radio reception
does not mean there is a problem with
the radio — it is just the normal result
of conditions outside the vehicle.
For example, nearby buildings and ter-
rain can interfere with FM reception.
Power lines or phone wires can inter-
fere with AM signals. And of course, ra-
dio signals have a limited range. The
farther the vehicle is from a station, the
weaker its signal will be. In addition, re-
ception conditions change constantly
as the vehicle moves.
Here, some common reception prob-
lems that probably do not indicate a
problem with the radio are described.

address will be displayed and route guid-
ance to the home address will begin.
MICROPHONE
It is unnecessary to speak directly into
the microphone when giving a com-
mand.
INFORMATION
● Wait for the confirmation beep before
speaking a command.
● Voice commands may not be recognized
if:
• Spoken too quickly.
• Spoken at a low or high volume.
• The windows are open.
• Passengers are talking while voice
commands are spoken.
• The air conditioning speed is set high.
• The air conditioning vents are turned towards the microphone.
● In the following conditions, the system
may not recognize the command prop-
erly and using voice commands may not
be possible:
• The command is incorrect or unclear.
Note that certain words, accents or
speech patterns may be difficult for the
system to recognize.
• There is excessive background noise, such as wind noise.
VOICE COMMAND EXAMPLE:
SEARCHING FOR A ROUTE TO
YOUR HOME
 If a home address is not registered,
voice guidance will say “Your home is
not set. Please try again after setting a
home location.” and you will be
prompted to enter a home address.

2. NATURAL SPEECH INFORM ATION (ENGLISH ONLY)
*: Say the desired artist name or album
name in the place of the “<>”.
Due to natural language speech recog-
nition technology, this system enables
recognition of a command when spo-
ken naturally. However, the system
cannot recognize every variation of
each command. In some situations, it
is possible to omit the command for the
procedure and directly state the de-
sired operation. Not all voice com-
mands are displayed in the short cut
menu.
INFORMATION
●The “Set a Destination”, “Use the
Phone”, “Play Music” and “Get Informa-
tion” commands displayed on the “Short-
cut Menu” screen can be operated using
natural language speech recognition
technology.
● If the command cannot be recognized
completely, the command input screen
will be displayed. (Search results will be
shown based on the part of the com-
mand that was recognized.)
