Set Up

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.

Yes: Available
No: Not available

Bluetooth is the registered trademark of Bluetooth SIG. Inc.

Note

l

It may not be possible to play a Bluetooth audio device if it is placed anywhere transmission 
is compromised, such as inside a metal container or the trunk. Move the Bluetooth audio 
device to a location where transmission is possible.

l

Battery consumption of Bluetooth audio devices is higher while Bluetooth-connected.

l

If a non-Bluetooth device is to be used, a commercially-available Bluetooth adapter is 
required. When playing an audio device with a Bluetooth adapter installed, pairing of the 
audio device may not be possible or audio may not be heard from the vehicle speakers if 
the connection of the adapter and the device is poor. If this happens, check if the Bluetooth 
adapter is properly connected.

n

Bluetooth audio device pairing

Any Bluetooth audio device must be paired to the vehicle’s Bluetooth unit before it can be 
listened to over the vehicle’s speakers.
A maximum of seven devices including Bluetooth audio devices and hands-free mobile 
phones can be paired to one vehicle.

Note

l

Always perform Bluetooth audio device pairing while the vehicle is stopped.

l

If a Bluetooth device has already been paired to the vehicle as a hands-free mobile phone, 
it does not need to be paired again when using the device as a Bluetooth audio device. 
Conversely, it does not need to be paired again as a hands-free mobile phone if it has 
already been paired as a Bluetooth audio device.

l

The transmission range of a Bluetooth audio device is about 10 m (32 ft).

l

Therefore, if there is another Bluetooth audio device within a 10 m (32 ft) radius of the 
vehicle, the device may be identified and paired instead.

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 pairing procedure differs depending on whether it has a PIN 
code or not.
