▼Bluetooth® audio device pairing
(Bluetooth
® Audio)
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 fo r 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). I f 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”).
