▼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”).

NOTE
•Some Bluetooth® audio devices need
a certain amount of time before the
“
” symbol is displayed.
•If the pairing failed, “Err” flashes
for three seconds.
•Pairing cannot be performed while
the vehicle is moving. If you attempt
to perform pairing while the vehicle
is moving, “PAIR DISABLE” is
displayed.
•If seven Bluetooth® audio devices
have already been paired to the
vehicle, pairing cannot be performed
and “MEMORY FULL” is
displayed. Delete one paired device
to pair another one.
Pairing a Bluetooth® audio device
which does not hav e a four-digit PIN

•If a hands-free type mobile phone
has been the most recently paired
device, the Bluetooth
® unit links this
device. If you would like to use a
Bluetooth
® audio type device which
has been previously paired to the
Bluetooth
® unit, the link must be
changed to this device.
•If an error occurs while trying to
link a device, “Err” flashes in the
display for three seconds, and the
display returns to “LINK
CHANGE”. If this occurs, check the
pairing status of the Bluetooth
®
audio device and the location of the
device in the vehicle (not in the
luggage compartment or a
metal-type box), and then try the link
operation again.
•Device selection can also be done
using voice recognition.
How to confirm the device currently

Confirmation Prompts
The confirmation prompt confirms the
command content to the user before
advancing to the operation requested by
the user. When this function is turned on,
the system reads out the voice input
command previously received and
confirms whether the command is correct
before advancing to the command
execution.

(Ex. “Calling John's device. Is this
correct?”)
When the confirmation prompt function is
turned off:
(Ex. “Calling John's device.”)
