BLUETOOTH® STREAMING AUDIO
Your vehicle is equipped with Bluetooth®
Streaming Audio.
If you have a compatible Bluetooth® device
with streaming audio (A2DP profile), you can set
up a 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 may also allow basic
control of the device for playing and skipping
audio files using the AVRCP Bluetooth® profile.
Not all Bluetooth® devices have the same level
of controls for AVRCP. Please consult the
manual for your Bluetooth® device for more
details.
Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth® func-
tions 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 unde-
sired noise. It is recommended that you turn off
the wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) when using the
Bluetooth® functions.
