Connecting a Bluetooth device
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless networking technology.
The Bluetooth communication function allows you to exchange
data by connecting a Bluetooth device to another neighboring
Bluetooth device without a cable connection. With this function,
you can use different types of devices more efficiently.
To make a phone call or play audio from a Bluetooth device, check
the following first:
\225For a device that is not registered to the system, > see
“ Registering a device.”
\225
A registered device will automatically connect to the system
when you bring it near the system. If it does not automatically
connect,
> see “Connecting a registered device ”, “Disconnecting a
registered device.”
\335Warning
\225 Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control
that may lead to an accident, severe bodily injury, or death.
The driver's primary responsibility is the safe and legal
operation of the vehicle, and the use of any vehicle systems,
including the touch screen and steering wheel controls, which
take the driver's eyes, attention, and focus away from the safe
operation of the vehicle, or which are not permissible by law,
should never be used during the operation of the vehicle.
\225 Pull over the vehicle at a safe place before connecting
a Bluetooth device to the system. It may take the driver
attention off the road and cause a traffic accident which can
result in damages, injuries, and/or death.

Use of speech recognition functions
Speech recognition software is inherently a statistical process
which is subject to errors. It is your responsibility to monitor any
speech recognition functions included in the system and address
any errors.
Route safety
Do not follow the route suggestions if doing so would result
in an unsafe or illegal maneuver, if you would be placed in an
unsafe situation, or if you would be directed into an area that you
consider unsafe. The driver is ultimately responsible for the safe
operation of the vehicle and must evaluate whether it is safe to
follow the suggested directions.
Potential map inaccuracy
Maps used by this system may be inaccurate because of changes
in roads, traffic controls or driving conditions. Always use good
judgment and common sense when following the suggested
routes.
Emergency services
Do not rely on any navigation features included in the system
to direct you to emergency services. Ask local authorities or
an emergency services operator for these locations. Not all
emergency services such as police, fire stations, hospitals and
clinics are contained in the map database for navigation features.
