Bluetooth®
Bluetooth® audio device pairing
Any Bluetooth® audio device must be
paired 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 paired to one
vehicle.
NOTE
If a Bluetooth® device has already been
paired to the vehicle as a hands-free
mobile phone, it does not need to be
paired again when using the device as
a Bluetooth® audio device. Conversely,
it does not need to be paired again as
a hands-free mobile phone if it has
already been paired as a Bluetooth®
audio device. Device registration can also be done
using voice recognition.
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
pairing procedure differs depending on
whether it has a PIN code or not.
Pairing a Bluetooth® audio device which
has a four-digit PIN code
1. Using the audio control dial, select
the pairing 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 audio display
for three 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 audio
display.
5. Operate the Bluetooth® audio device
and set it to the pairing mode while
“PAIRING” is flashing.
6. When the pairing 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.

Battery Maintenance
To get the best service from a battery:
Keep it securely mounted. Keep the top clean and dry. Keep terminals and connections clean,
tight, and coated with petroleum jelly or
terminal grease. Rinse off spilled electrolyte immediately
with a solution of water and baking
soda. If the vehicle will not be used for an
extended time, disconnect the battery
cables and charge the battery every six
weeks.
Battery Replacement
Contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer for a
battery replacement purchase.
Key Battery Replacement
If the buttons on the transmitter are
inoperable and the operation indicator
light does not flash, the battery may be
dead.
Replace with a new battery before the
transmitter becomes unusable.
CAUTION
Make sure the battery is installed
correctly. Battery leakage could occur if it
is not installed correctly. When replacing the battery, be careful
not to touch any of the internal circuitry
and electrical terminals, bend the
electrical terminals, or get dirt in the
transmitter as the transmitter could be
damaged. There is the danger of explosion if the
battery is not correctly replaced. Dispose of used batteries according to
the following instructions.
Insulate the plus and minus terminals
of the battery using cellophane or
equivalent tape. Never disassemble. Never throw the battery into fire or
water. Never deform or crush.
Replace only with the same type battery
(CR2025 or equivalent).
