Streaming Audio. If you have a compatible
Bluetooth®device with streaming audio (A2DP
profile) , you can set up the wireless connection
between your Bluetooth
®device and the in-
vehicle audio system. This connection allows
you to listen to the audio from the Bluetooth
®
device using your vehicle speakers. It also may
allow basic control of the device for playing and
skipping audio files using the AVRCP Blue-
tooth
®profile. All Bluetooth®Devices do not
have the same level of controls for AVRCP.
Please consult the manual for your Bluetooth
®
Device for more details.
Once your Bluetooth®device is connected to
the in-vehicle audio system, it will automatically
reconnect whenever the device is present in the
vehicle and you select Bluetooth
®Audio from
your audio system. You do not need to manually
reconnect for each usage.
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 disconnect the communication and cause
undesired noise. It is recommended that you
