USING HD Radio™
TECHNOLOGY
HD Radio™ Technology is the digital
evolution of analog AM/FM radio. Your
radio product has a special receiver
which allows it to receive digital
broadcasts (where available) in
addition to the analog broadcasts it
already receives. Digital broadcasts
have better sound quality than analog
broadcasts as digital broadcasts
provide free, crystal clear audio with no
static or distortion. For more
information, and a guide to available
radio stations and programming, refer
to www.hdradio.com

The Bluetooth® audio system enables
users to enjoy music played on a por-
table player from the vehicle speaker
via wireless communication.
This audio system supports
Bluetooth
®, a wireless data system
capable of playing portable audio
music without cables. If your portable
player does not support Bluetooth
®,
the Bluetooth
® audio system will not
function.
CAUTION
●Do not operate the player’s controls or
connect to the Bluetooth® audio system
while driving.
●Your audio unit is fitted with Bluetooth
®
antennas. People with implanted pace-
makers or cardiac defibrillators should
maintain a reasonable distance between
themselves and the Bluetooth
® anten-
nas. The radio waves may affect the
operation of such devices.
●Before using Bluetooth
® devices, users
of any electrical medical device other
than implanted pacemakers and
implanted cardiac defibrillators should
consult the manufacturer of the device
for information about its operation under
the influence of radio waves. Radio
waves could have unexpected effects on
the operation of such medical devices.
NOTICE
●Do not leave your portable audio player
in the car. In particular, high tempera-
tures inside the vehicle may damage the
portable audio player.
INFORMATION
●In the following conditions, the system
may not function.

10. AUDIO SYSTEM OPERATING HINTS
Fading and drifting stations: Generally,
the effective range of FM is about 25 miles
(40 km). Once outside this range, you may
notice fading and drifting, which increase
with the distance from the radio transmit-
ter. They are often accompanied by distor-
tion.
Multi-path: FM signals are reflective, mak-
ing it possible for two signals to reach your
antenna at the same time. If this happens,
the signals will cancel each other out,
causing a momentary flutter or loss of re-
ception.
Static and fluttering: These occur when
signals are blocked by buildings, trees, or
other large objects. Increasing the bass
level may reduce static and fluttering.
Station swapping: If the FM signal you
are listening to is interrupted or weakened,
and there is another strong station nearby
on the FM band, your radio may tune in the
second station until the original signal can
be picked up again.
Fading: AM broadcasts are reflected by
the upper atmosphere  especially at
night. These reflected signals can interfere
with those received directly from the radio
station, causing the radio station to sound
alternately strong and weak.
Station interference: When a reflected
signal and a signal received directly from a
radio station are very nearly the same fre-
quency, they can interfere with each other,
making it difficult to hear the broadcast.
Static: AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high
tension power lines, lightening, or electri-
cal motors. This results in static.
NOTICE
●To avoid damaging the audio system:
• Be careful not to spill beverages over
the audio system.
• Do not put anything other than on
appropriate discs into the CD player
slot.
INFORMATION
●The use of a cellular phone inside or
near the vehicle may cause a noise from
the speakers of the audio system which
you are listening to. However, this does
not indicate a malfunction.
RADIO RECEPTION
Usually, a problem with radio reception
does not mean there is a problem with
your radio  it is just the normal result
of conditions outside the vehicle.
For example, nearby buildings and ter-
rain can interfere with FM reception.
Power lines or telephone wires can in-
terfere with AM signals. And of course,
radio signals have a limited range, and
the farther you are from a station, the
weaker its signal will be. In addition, re-
ception conditions change constantly
as your vehicle moves.
Here are some common reception
problems that probably do not indicate
a problem with your radio.

Bluetooth
® HANDS-FREE SYSTEM
2. HANDS-FREE SYSTEM
This system supports Bluetooth®.
Bluetooth
® is a wireless data system
by which you can call without your
cellular phone being connected with a
cable or placed on a cradle.
The operating procedure of the system
is explained in this section.
zFor registering and setting of the phone,
see “PHONE SETTINGS” on page 96.
CAUTION
●Use a cellular phone or connect the
Bluetooth® phone only when safe and
legal to do so.
●Your audio unit is fitted with Bluetooth
®
antennas. People with implanted pace-
makers or cardiac defibrillators should
maintain a reasonable distance between
themselves and the Bluetooth
® anten-
nas. The radio waves may affect the
operation of such devices.
●Before using Bluetooth
® devices, users
of any electrical medical device other
than implanted pacemakers and
implanted cardiac defibrillators should
consult the manufacturer of the device
for information about its operation under
the influence of radio waves. Radio
waves could have unexpected effects on
the operation of such medical devices.
NOTICE
●Do not leave your cellular phone in the
car. The temperature inside may be high
and damage the phone.
●If the Bluetooth
® phone is too close to
the system, quality of the sound may
deteriorate and connecting condition
may go down.
INFORMATION
●If your cellular phone does not support
Bluetooth®, this system will not function.
●Depending on the cellular phone mod-
els, some functions may be restricted.
●In the following conditions, the system
may not function.
• The cellular phone is turned off.
• The current position is outside the
communication area.
• The cellular phone is not connected.
• The cellular phone has a low battery.
• When outgoing is controlled, due to
heavy traffic on telephone lines, etc.
• When the cellular phone itself cannot
be used
• When transferring the phonebook
data from the cellular phone
●Even if your cellular phone supports
both hands-free and audio Bluetooth
®
connections, it may not be able to con-
nect to the hands-free connection at the
same time.
●When using Bluetooth
® audio and
hands-free at the same time, the follow-
ing problems may occur.
• The Bluetooth
® connection may be
cut.
• Noise may be heard on the
Bluetooth
® audio playback.
●The Bluetooth® phone battery will be
depleted quickly when it is connected to
Bluetooth
®.
