BLUETOOTH® AUDIO
.Some Bluetooth® audio devices may not
be recognized by the in-vehicle audio
system.
. It is necessary to set up the wireless
connection between a compatible Blue-
tooth® audio device and the in-vehicle
Bluetooth® module before using the
Bluetooth® audio.
. The Bluetooth® audio may stop playing
when
— receiving a hands-free call.
— checking the connection to the hands- free phone.
— connecting the hands-free phone or the audio device.
— downloading the phonebook memory from the connected cellular phone.
. Do not place a Bluetooth® audio device
in an area surrounded by metal or far
away from the in-vehicle Bluetooth®
module to prevent tone quality degrada-
tion and wireless connection disruption.
. While an audio device is connected
through a Bluetooth® wireless connec-
tion, the battery of the device may discharge quicker than usual.
. This system supports the Bluetooth®
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile
(A2DP) and Audio/Video Remote Con-
trol Profile (AVRCP).
. Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Blue-
tooth® functions share the same fre-
quency band (2.4 GHz). Using the
Bluetooth® and the wireless LAN func-
tions at the same time may slow down or
disconnect the communication and cause
undesired noise. It is recommended that
you turn off the wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) (if
so equipped) when using the Bluetooth®
functions.

BLUETOOTH® AUDIO
Your vehicle is equipped with Bluetooth®
Audio.
If you have a compatible Bluetooth® device
with streaming audio capability (A2DP pro-
file), you can set up a wireless connection
between your Bluetooth® device and the in-
vehicle audio system. This connection allows
you to listen to the audio from the Blue-
tooth® device using your vehicle speakers. It
also may allow basic control of the device for
playing and skipping audio files using the
AVRCP Bluetooth® profile. Not all Blue-
tooth® devices have the same level of
controls for AVRCP. Please consult the
manual for your Bluetooth® device for more
details.
Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and the Bluetooth®
functions share the same frequency band
(2.4 GHz). Using the Bluetooth® and the
wireless LAN functions at the same time
may slow down or disconnect the commu-
nication and cause undesired noise. It is
recommended that you turn off the wireless
LAN (Wi-Fi) (if so equipped) when using the
Bluetooth® functions.Connecting Bluetooth® audio de-
vice
A Bluetooth® audio device must be con-
nected to the vehicle before operation.
