to the Bluetooth
® unit using the following
procedure.
A maximum of seven devices including
hands-free mobile phones and Bluetooth
®
audio devices can be paired to one vehicle.
NOTE
If a Bluetooth® device has already been
paired to the vehicle as a Bluetooth
®
audio device, it does not need to be paired
again when using the device as a
hands-free mobile phone. Conversely, it
does not need to be paired again as a
Bluetooth
® audio device if it has already
been paired as a hands-free mobile phone.

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.

display disappears before finishing the
PIN code input, repeat the procedure
from Step 1.
NOTE
Some devices accept only a particular

device, and try those numbers if
necessary.
4. Press the audio control dial while the input PIN code is displayed.
