BLUETOOTH® STREAMING
AUDIO
.Some Bluetooth® streaming audio de-
vices may not be recognized by the in-
vehicle audio system.
. It is necessary to set up the wireless
connection between a compatible Blue-
tooth® streaming audio device and the
in-vehicle Bluetooth® module before
using the Bluetooth® streaming audio.
. The Bluetooth® streaming audio may be
stopped under the following conditions:
— When receiving a hands-free call
— When checking the connection to the hands-free phone
— When connecting the hands-free phone or audio device
— When downloading a phonebook memory from a connected cellular
phone .
Do not place a Bluetooth® streaming
audio device in an area surrounded by
metal or far away from the in-vehicle
Bluetooth® module to prevent tone
quality degradation and wireless con-
nection disruption.
. While an audio device is connected
through Bluetooth® wireless connection,
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)
when using the Bluetooth® functions.
