Do not adjust a mobile device or a similar product while driving the vehicle:
Adjusting a mobile device or a similar product while driving the vehicle is dangerous
as it could distract your attention from the vehicle operation which could lead to a
serious accident. Always adjust a mobile device or a similar product while the
vehicle is stopped.
CAUTION
For the purposes of safe driving, adjust the audio volume to a level that allows you
to hear sounds outside of the vehicle including car horns and particularly emergency
vehicle sirens.
NOTE
xDo not use Mazda Connect for a long time with the engine stopped. Otherwise,
the battery power could be depleted.
xIf a mobile phone or CB radio is used in or near the vehicle, it could cause noise to
occur from the audio system. However, this does not indicate a problem.

Gracenote® Database
When audio CDs are played, the unit searches the database stored in the vehicle for
the album name, artist name, genre, title, and album art, and if there is a match in
the vehicle's database compilation to the music being played, each type of music
information is automatically added (Album art only for MP3/WMA/AAC CDs and
when playing USB audio and Bluetooth
® audio). The database information stored in
this device uses database information in the Gracenote® music recognitions service.
