A2DP is a pro¿ le which transmits only
audio to the Bluetooth ® unit. If your
Bluetooth ® audio device corresponds
only to A2DP, but not AVRCP, you
cannot operate it using the control panel
of the vehicle's audio system. In this
case, only the operations on the mobile
device are available the same as when a
portable audio device for a non-compliant
Bluetooth
® device is connected to the
AUX terminal.
