Loud noise (speaking or noise from outside/inside vehicle).
Airflow from A/C is blowing against the microphone.
Speaking in off-standard expressions (dialect). Regarding the causes indicated

with the microphone may have
occurred. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
Phone-related voice recognition is

unit and the device. If there is any malfunction after
checking the pairing situation, check
for device pairing or connection
problems.
Names in the phonebook are not
easily recognized The Bluetooth

condition in which recognition is
difficult. By carrying out the following
measures, the rate of recognition
will improve.Clear memory from the phonebook
which is not used very often.

longer the name is. By not using
names such as “Mom”, “Dad”,
recognition will improve.)
