N00563900074
The Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface allows for making/receiving
hands-free calls in the vehicle using a Bluetooth
® compatible
cellular phone based on the wireless communication technol-
ogy commonly known as Bluetooth
®. It also allows the user to
play music, saved in a Bluetooth
® music player, from the vehi-
cle’s speakers.
The system is equipped with a voice recognition function,
which allows you to make hands-free calls by simple switch
operations and voice command operations using a defined
voice tree.
The Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface can be used when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “ACC” position.
Before you can use the Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface, you must pair
the Bluetooth
® device and Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface. Refer to
“Connecting the Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface and Bluetooth
®
device” on page 3-245.
Bluetooth
® is a registered trademark of BLUETOOTH SIG,
INC.
NOTE
If the ignition switch is left in the “ACC” position, the
accessory power will automatically turn off after a certain
period of time and you will no longer be able to use the
Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface. The accessory power comes on
again if the ignition switch is turned from the “ACC”
position. Refer to “ACC power auto-cutout function” on
page 3-89.

The Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface cannot be used if the Blue-
tooth
® device has a dead battery or the device power is
turned off.

Hands-free calls will not be possible if your phone does
not have service available.

If you place the Bluetooth
® device in the vehicle’s third
seat or luggage compartment, you may not be able to use
the Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface.
WA R N I N G
!
Although the Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface allows you to
make hands-free calls, if you choose to use the cellu-
lar phone while driving, you must not allow yourself
to be distracted from the safe operation of your vehi-
cle. Anything, including cellular phone usage, that
distracts you from the safe operation of your vehicle
increases your risk of an accident.

Refer to and comply with all state and local laws in
your area regarding cellular phone usage while driv-
ing.

defined command or cannot be recognised due to ambient
noise or some other reason, the Bluetooth
