Audio System
Weak signal noise
In suburban areas, broadcast signals
become weak because of distance from the
transmitter. Reception in such fringe areas
is characterized by sound breakup.


Strong signal noise
This occurs very close to a transmitter
tower. The broadcast signals are extremely
strong, so the result is noise and sound
breakup at the radio receiver.


Station drift noise
When a vehicle reaches the area of two
strong stations broadcasting at similar
frequencies, the original station may be
temporarily lost and the second station
picked up. At this time there will be some
noise from this disturbance.

Station 2
88.3 MHz Station 1
88.1 MHz

Operating Tips for CD Player
Condensation phenomenon
Immediately after turning on the heater
when the vehicle is cold, the CD or
optical components (prism and lens) in
the CD player may become clouded with
condensation. At this time, the CD will
eject immediately when placed in the unit.
A clouded CD can be corrected simply by
wiping it with a soft cloth. Clouded optical
components will clear naturally in about
an hour. Wait for normal operation to
return before attempting to use the unit.
Handling the CD player
The following precautions should be
observed.
 


y Do not use deformed or cracked CDs.
The disc may not eject resulting in a
malfunction.

 


y Do not use non-conventional discs such
as heart-shaped, octagonal discs, etc.
The disc may not eject resulting in a
malfunction.

y If the memory portion of the CD is
transparent or translucent, do not use the
disc.

Transparent  


y A new CD may have rough edges on its
inner and outer perimeters. If a disc with
rough edges is used, proper setting will
not be possible and the CD player will
not play the CD. In addition, the disc
may not eject resulting in a malfunction.
Remove the rough edges in advance
by using a ball-point pen or pencil
as shown in the following ¿ gure. To
remove the rough edges, rub the side of
the pen or pencil against the inner and
outer perimeter of the CD.

 


y When driving over uneven surfaces, the
sound may jump.


 


y CDs bearing the logo shown in the
illustration can be played. No other discs
can be played.

 


y Use discs that have been legitimately
produced. If illegally-copied discs such
as pirated discs are used, the system may
not operate properly.
 


y Be sure never to touch the signal surface
when handling the CDs. Pick up a CD
by grasping the outer edge or the edge of
the hole and the outer edge.

 


y Do not stick paper or tape on the CD.
Avoid scratching the reverse side (the
side without a label). The disc may not
eject resulting in a malfunction.
 


y Dust, ¿ nger smudges, and dirt can
decrease the amount of light reÀ ected
from the signal surface, thus affecting
sound quality. If the CD should become
soiled, gently wipe it with a soft cloth
from the center of the CD to the edge.
 


y Do not use record sprays, antistatic
agents, or household spray cleaners.
Volatile chemicals such as benzine and
thinner can also damage the surface of
the CD and must not be used. Anything
that can damage, warp, or fog plastic
should never be used to clean CDs.

y The CD player ejects the CD if the CD
is inserted upside down. Also dirty and/
or defective CDs may be ejected.
 


y Do not insert cleaning discs in the CD
player.
 


y Do not insert any disc with a peel-off
seal af¿ xed to it.




y This unit may not be able to play certain
CD-R/CD-RWs made using a computer
or music CD recorder due to disc
characteristics, scratches, smudges, dirt,
etc., or due to dust or condensation on
the lens inside the unit.
 


y Storing CDs in the vehicle exposed to
direct sunlight or high temperature may
damage the CD-R/CD-RWs, and make
them unplayable.
 


y CD-R/CD-RW exceeding 700 MB
cannot be played.
 


y This unit may not be able to play certain
discs made using a computer due to the
application (writing software) setting
used. (For details, consult the store
where the application was purchased.)
 


y It is possible that certain text data, such
as titles, recorded on a CD-R/CD-RW
may not be displayed when musical data
(CD-DA) is playing.
 


y The period from when a CD-RW is
inserted to when it begins playing is
longer than a normal CD or CD-R.
 


y Completely read the instruction manual
and cautions for CD-R/CD-RWs.
 


y Do not use discs with cellophane tape
adhering, partially peeled off labels,
or adhesive material exuding from the
edges of the CD label. Also, do not use
discs with a commercially-available
CD-R label af¿ xed. The disc may not
eject resulting in a malfunction.

Operating Tips for MP3
MP3 stands for MPEG Audio Layer 3,
which is standardized voice compression
established by the ISO
*1 working group
(MPEG).
Use of MP3 allows for audio data to be
compressed to approximately a tenth of
the source data size.
This unit plays ¿ les with the extension
(.mp3) as MP3 ¿ les.

*1 International Organization for
Standardization

CAUTION
Do not use an audio fi le extension on
fi les other than audio fi les. In addition,
do not change the audio fi le extension.
Otherwise, the unit will not recognize
the fi le correctly resulting in noise or a
malfunction.

device registration mode. If “No”, the
system returns to standby status.

Device pairing
To use Bluetooth
® Hands-Free, the device
equipped with Bluetooth ® has to be paired
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.
N O T E
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.

1. Activate the Bluetooth ® application of
the device.
N O T E
For the operation of the device, refer to its
instruction manual.

2. Press the pick-up button or talk button
with a short press.
3. Say: [Beep] “Setup”
4. Prompt: “Select one of the following:
Pairing options, con¿ rmation prompts,
language, passcode, select phone or
select music player.”
5. Say: [Beep] “Pairing options”
6. Prompt: “Select one of the following:
Pair, Edit, Delete, List, or Set Pairing
Code.”
7. Say: [Beep] “Pair”
8. Prompt: “Start the pairing process on
your Bluetooth
® device. Your pairing
code is 0000 (XXXX). Input this on
your Bluetooth
® device when prompted
on the device. See device manual for
instructions.”

9. Using the device, perform a search
for the Bluetooth ® device (Peripheral
device).
N O T E
For the operation of the device, refer to its
instruction manual.

10. Select “Mazda” from the device list
searched by the device.
11. Input the 4-digit pairing code to the
device.
12. Prompt: “Please say the name of the
device after the beep.”
13. Say: [Beep] “XXXX - - -” (Say a
“device tag”, an arbitrary name for the
device.) Example: “Stan's device.”
N O T E
Say a paired “device tag” within 10
seconds.
If more than two devices are to be paired,
they cannot be paired with the same or
similar “device tag”.

14. Prompt: “XXXXXX - - - (Ex. “Stan's
device”) (Device tag). Is this correct?”
15. Say: [Beep] “Yes”
16. Prompt: “Pairing complete”


After a device is registered, the system
automatically identi¿ es the device. By
activating Bluetooth
® Hands-Free again,
or by activating Bluetooth ® Hands-Free
¿ rst after switching the ignition from
OFF to ACC, the system reads out a voice
guidance, “XXXXXX - - - (Ex. “Stan's
device”) (Device tag) is connected”.
N O T E
 


y When the pairing is completed, the
symbol is displayed.
 


y Some Bluetooth ® audio devices need a
certain amount of time before the

symbol is displayed.
 


y Device registration can also be done by
operating the audio unit.
 


y Depending on the device, the
registration status may be lost after a
certain period of time. If this occurs,
repeat the entire process from Step 1.

Registered device read-out
Bluetooth
® Hands-Free can read-out the
devices registered to its system.
N O T E
Do this function only when parked. It is
too distracting to attempt while driving
and you may make too many errors to be
effective.

1. Press the pick-up button or talk button
with a short press.
2. Say: [Beep] “Setup”
3. Prompt: “Select one of the following:
Pairing options, con¿ rmation prompts,
language, passcode, select phone or
select music player.”
4. Say: [Beep] “Pairing options”
5. Prompt: “Select one of the following:
Pair, Edit, Delete, List, or Set Pairing
Code”
6. Say: [Beep] “List”
