WARNING!
. Use a phone after stopping your vehicle
in a safe location. If you have to use a
phone while driving, exercise extreme
caution at all times so full attention may
be given to vehicle operation.
. If you find yourself unable to devote full
attention to vehicle operation while
talking on the phone, pull off the road
to a safe location and stop your vehicle
before doing so.
CAUTION!
To avoid draining the vehicle battery, use a
phone after starting the engine or the hybrid
system.
Your vehicle is equipped with Bluetooth®
Hands-Free Phone System. If you are an
owner of a compatible Bluetooth®enabled
cellular phone, you can set up the wireless
connection between your cellular phone
and the in-vehicle phone module. With Bluetooth
®wireless technology, you can
make or receive a telephone call with your
cellular phone in your pocket.
Once a cellular phone is connected to the
in-vehicle phone module, the procedure for
connecting the phone does not need to be
performed again. Your phone is automati-
cally selected with the in-vehicle phone
module when the ignition switch is pushed
to the “ON”position with the selected
cellular phone turned on and carried in the
vehicle.
You can register up to 5 different Blue-
tooth
®cellular phones in the in-vehicle
phone module. However, you can talk on
only one cellular phone at a time.
The Voice Recognition system supports
phone commands, so dialing a phone
number using your voice is possible.
“10. Voice recognition”
Before using the Bluetooth®Hands-Free
Phone System, refer to the following notes.
. Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth
®
functions share the same frequency
band (2.4 GHz). Using the Bluetooth®
and the wireless LAN functions at the
same time may slow down or discon-
nect the communication and cause undesired noise. It is recommended
that you turn off the wireless LAN (Wi-
Fi) when using the Bluetooth
®func-
tions.
. Set up the wireless connection between
a compatible cellular phone and the in-
vehicle phone module before using the
Bluetooth
®Hands-Free Phone System.
. Some Bluetooth
®enabled cellular
phones may not be recognized by the
in-vehicle phone module.
Please visit www.infinitiusa.com/blue-
tooth/search for a recommended
phone list.
. You will not be able to use a hands-free
phone under the following conditions:
—
Your vehicle is outside of the telephone
service area.
—Your vehicle is in an area where it isdifficult to receive radio waves; such as
in a tunnel, in an underground parking
garage, behind a tall building or in a
mountainous area.
—Your cellular phone is locked in order toprevent dialing.

.When the radio wave condition is not
ideal or ambient sound is too loud, it
may be difficult to hear the other
person’s voice during a call.
. Immediately after the ignition switch is
pushed to the “ON”position, it may be
impossible to receive a call for a short
period of time.
. Do not place the cellular phone in an
area surrounded by metal or far away
from the in-vehicle phone module to
prevent tone quality degradation and
wireless connection disruption.
. While a cellular phone is connected
through the Bluetooth
®wireless con-
nection, the battery power of the
cellular phone may discharge quicker
than usual.
. If the Bluetooth
®Hands-Free Phone
System seems to be malfunctioning,
please visit www.infinitiusa.com/blue-
tooth for troubleshooting help.
. Some cellular phones or other devices
may cause interference or a buzzing
noise to come from the audio system
speakers. Storing the device in a
different location may reduce or elim-
inate the noise. .
Refer to the cellular phone Owner’s
Manual regarding the telephone pairing
procedure specific to your phone,
battery charging, cellular phone anten-
na, etc.
. The antenna display on the monitor
may not coincide with the antenna
display of some cellular phones.
. The battery display on the monitor may
not coincide with the battery display of
some cellular phones.
. Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet
as possible to hear the caller ’s voice
clearly as well as to minimize its
echoes.
. If reception between callers is unclear,
adjusting the incoming or outgoing call
volume may improve the clarity.
. The microphone is located near the
map light.

BLUETOOTH®HANDS-FREE PHONE SYSTEM
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
A cellular phone cannot be registered. The cellular phone is not compatible with the in- vehicle hands-free phone system. Use a cellular phone compatible with the system. Visit the
website (www.infinitiusa.com/bluetooth) for model com-
patibility.
Registration of the cellular phone has been
performed incorrectly. Check the registration procedure, and then register the
cellular phone again.
A cellular phone cannot be connected or is
disconnected after the registration is com-
pleted. The Bluetooth
®setting of the in-vehicle hands-free
phone system is turned off. Turn on the Bluetooth®setting of the system.
The Bluetooth
®setting of the cellular phone is
turned off. Turn on the Bluetooth®setting of the cellular phone.
The remaining battery level of the cellular phone is
low. Charge the battery of the cellular phone.
The wireless Bluetooth
®connection may be dis-
rupted depending on the location of the cellular
phone. Do not place the cellular phone in an area surrounded by
metal or far away from the in-vehicle hands- free phone
system. Do not place the cellular phone close to the seats
or your body.
Registration of the cellular phone is not completed. Perform registration of the cellular phone.
A call to a particular phone number fails. If the system tries to make a call several times to the same phone number (for example: the party does
not respond to the call, the party is out of the
service area, or the call is abandoned before the
party responds), the system may reject a request to
make a call to the phone number. Turn off the cellular phone and turn it on again to reset
the connection.

SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Each volume level (ring tone, incoming voice or
outgoing voice) is different. Each volume level is not adjusted properly. Adjust each volume level properly.
The antenna display is different between the
navigation screen and a cellular phone screen.
Making or receiving a call is unavailable even
though the antenna display shows that it is
possible to do so. The antenna display varies depending on the model
of cellular phone.
This does not indicate a malfunction. The antenna display
and remaining battery level shown on the navigation
screen may be different from those shown on the cellular
phone screen. Use them as a reference.
A voice cannot be heard clearly when using a
cellular phone behind tall buildings. Some structures such as tall buildings, etc. may
cause irregular reflection of radio waves or com-
pletely shut out radio waves that are used for
cellular phones. This is not a malfunction.
Noise is heard when using a cellular phone
under/near areas of elevated railroads, high
voltage electric power cables, traffic signals,
neon billboards, etc. Electromagnetic waves that are generated from
radio devices may adversely affect the cellular
phone.
This is not a malfunction.
Noise is heard in the sound from the audio
system while using a cellular phone. Radio waves that are generated from a cellular
phone may adversely affect the sound from the
audio system. This is not a malfunction.
Sound skip. The cellular phone may have turned on wireless LAN
(Wi-Fi). Turn off the wireless LAN (Wi-Fi).
