Operating Tips for Audio
System
WARNING
Do not adjust the audio control
switches while driving the vehicle:
Adjusting the audio while driving the
vehicle is dangerous as it could
distract your attention from the
vehicle operation which could lead to
a serious accident. Always adjust the
audio while the vehicle is stopped.
Even if the audio control switches are
equipped on the steering wheel, learn
to use the switches without looking
down at them so that you can keep
your maximum attention on the road
while driving the vehicle.
CAUTION
For the purposes of safe driving,
adjust the audio volume to a level
that allows you to hear sounds
outside of the vehicle including car
horns and particularly emergency
vehicle sirens.
NOTE
lTo prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the audio system
on for a long period of time when the
engine is not running.
lIf a cellular phone or CB radio is used in
or near the vehicle, it could cause noise to
occur from the audio system, however, this
does not indicate that the system has been
damaged.

Bluetooth Audioí
qWhat is Bluetooth Audio?
Bluetooth audio outline
By programming portable audio devices
equipped with the Bluetooth
communication function to the vehicle's
Bluetooth unit, you can listen to music or
audio recorded on these audio devices
from the vehicle's speakers.
After programming, operate the audio
system's control panel or the navigation
system to play/stop the music or audio.
CAUTION
Ø Always program audio devices to
the Bluetooth audio system while
the vehicle is stopped.
Ø Because only specified Bluetooth
audio devices can be used, consult
an Authorized Mazda Dealer when
purchasing or changing devices.
Bluetooth audio devices which
correspond to specified Bluetooth
versions and profiles can be
Bluetooth-connected to the
vehicle's Bluetooth unit, however,
even among these devices are ones
which cannot be Bluetooth-
connected or have limited
functionality. Each device to be
used with the vehicle's Bluetooth
unit needs to be checked
individually for compatibility.
Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer concerning device
compatibility.

A2DP is a profile which transmits only
audio to the Bluetooth unit. If your
Bluetooth audio device corresponds only
to A2DP, but not AVRCP, you cannot
operate it using the control panel of the
vehicle's audio or navigation systems. In
this case, the Bluetooth audio device can
be operated by controlling the device
itself, the same as when a portable audio
system without the Bluetooth
communication function is connected to
the AUX terminal.

NOTElAlways perform Bluetooth audio device
programming while the vehicle is stopped.
lIf a Bluetooth device has already been
programmed to the vehicle as a hands-free
mobile phone, it does not need to be
programmed again when using the device
as a Bluetooth audio device. Conversely, it
does not need to be programmed again as a
hands-free mobile phone if it has already
been programmed as a Bluetooth audio
device.
lThe transmission range of a Bluetooth
audio device is about 10 m (32 ft).
Therefore, if there is another Bluetooth
audio device within a 10 m (32 ft) radius of
the vehicle, the device may be identified
and programmed instead.
lDevice registration can also be done using
voice recognition (page 6-76).
Concerning the operation of a Bluetooth
audio device itself, refer to its instruction
manual.
Some Bluetooth audio devices have PIN
codes (four digits). Refer to the audio
device's instruction manual because the
programming procedure differs depending
on whether it has a PIN code or not.
Programming a Bluetooth audio devicewhich has a PIN code (4 digits)
1. Using the audio control dial, select thepairing program mode
“PAIR DEVICE ”in the “BT SETUP”
mode. (Refer to
“ Bluetooth audio device set-up ”for
details.)
2. Press the audio control dial to determine the mode.
After “ENTER PIN ”is displayed on
the information display for 3 seconds,
“ PIN 0000 ”is displayed and the PIN
code can be input. 3. Input the PIN code of your Bluetooth
audio device by pressing channel
preset buttons 1 to 4 while “PIN 0000 ”
is displayed.
Press channel preset button 1 to input
the first digit, 2 for the second, 3 for
the third, and 4 for the forth. For
example, if the PIN code were “4213 ”,
press channel preset button 1 four
times (1, 2, 3, 4), button 2 twice (1, 2),
button 3 once (1), and button 4 three
times (1, 2, 3). If the “PIN 0000 ”
display disappears before finishing the
PIN code input, repeat the procedure
from Step 1.
4. Press the audio control dial while the input PIN code is displayed.
“PAIRING ”flashes on the display.
5. Operate the Bluetooth audio device and set it to the program mode while
“PAIRING ”is flashing.
6. When the programming is completed, “
”and “PAIR SUCCESS” are
displayed after about 10-30 seconds,
after which “PAIR SUCCESS”
continues to be displayed for three
seconds, and then the unit returns to the
normal display.

NOTE
lIf a hands-free type mobile phone has been
the most recently programmed device, the
Bluetooth unit links this device. If you
would like to use a Bluetooth audio type
device which has been previously
programmed to the Bluetooth unit, the link
must be changed to this device.
lIf an error occurs while trying to link a
device, “Err ”is displayed for 3 seconds,
and the display returns to
“ LINK CHANGE ”. If this occurs, check the
programming status of the Bluetooth audio
device and the location of the device in the
vehicle (not in the trunk or a metal-type
box), and then try the link operation again.
lDevice selection can also be done using
voice recognition (page 6-85).
