audio device pairing

(Bluetooth

Audio)

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



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.



Device registration can also be done
using voice recognition.

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.

Pairing a Bluetooth

audio device

which has a four-digit PIN code

1. Using the audio control dial, select the

pairing 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 audio display
for three 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.

NOTE
Some devices accept only a particular
pairing code (Usually, “0000” or
“1234”).
If pairing cannot be completed, refer to
the owner's manual of your mobile
device, and try those numbers if
necessary.

4. Press the audio control dial while the

input PIN code is displayed.
“PAIRING” flashes on the audio
display.

5. Operate the Bluetooth

audio device

and set it to the pairing mode while
“PAIRING” is flashing.

6. When the pairing 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



Some Bluetooth

audio devices need

a certain amount of time before the
symbol is displayed.

If the pairing failed, “Err” flashes
for three seconds.



Pairing cannot be performed while
the vehicle is moving. If you attempt
to perform pairing while the vehicle
is moving, “PAIR DISABLE” is
displayed.



If seven Bluetooth

audio devices

have already been paired to the
vehicle, pairing cannot be performed
and “MEMORY FULL” is
displayed. Delete one paired device
to pair another one.

Pairing a Bluetooth

audio device

which does not have a four-digit PIN
code

1. Using the audio control dial, select the

pairing mode “PAIR DEVICE” in the
“BT SETUP” mode. (Refer to
“Bluetooth

audio set up” for details.)

2. Press the audio control dial to

determine the mode. After “ENTER
PIN” is displayed on the audio display
for three seconds, “PIN 0000” is
displayed and the PIN code can be
input.

3. Press the audio control dial while “PIN

0000” is displayed. “PAIRING”
flashes on the audio display.

4. Operate the Bluetooth

audio device

and set it to the pairing mode while
“PAIRING” is flashing.

5. As the Bluetooth

audio device

requires a PIN code, input “0000”.

6. When the pairing 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



If pairing cannot be completed, try
“1234” instead. Refer to the owner's
manual of your mobile device for the
right PIN code.



Some Bluetooth

audio devices need

a certain amount of time before the
symbol is displayed.



If the pairing failed, “Err” flashes
for three seconds.



Pairing cannot be performed while
the vehicle is moving. If you attempt
to perform pairing while the vehicle
is moving, “PAIR DISABLE” is
displayed.



If seven Bluetooth

audio devices

have already been paired to the
vehicle, pairing cannot be performed
and “MEMORY FULL” is
displayed. Delete one paired device
to pair another one.

▼ Device selection (Bluetooth

Audio)

If several devices have been paired, the
Bluetooth

unit links the device last

paired. If you would like to link a different
paired device, it is necessary to change the
link. The order of device priority after the
link has been changed is maintained even
when the ignition is switched off.
1. Using the audio control dial, select the

link change mode “LINK CHANGE”
in the “BT SETUP” mode. (Refer to
“Bluetooth

details.)

2. Press the audio control dial to

determine the mode.

6. If the link to the desired device is

successful, the symbol is displayed
again, together with “LINK
CHANGED”. “LINK CHANGED” is
displayed for three seconds, then it
returns to the normal display.

NOTE



Some Bluetooth

audio devices need

a certain amount of time before the
symbol is displayed.



If a hands-free type mobile phone
has been the most recently paired
device, the Bluetooth

unit links this

device. If you would like to use a
Bluetooth

audio type device which

has been previously paired to the
Bluetooth

unit, the link must be

changed to this device.



If an error occurs while trying to
link a device, “Err” flashes in the
audio display for three seconds, and
the display returns to “LINK
CHANGE”. If this occurs, check the
pairing 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.



Device selection can also be done
using voice recognition.

How to confirm the device currently
linked

Switch to the link-change mode. (Refer to
“Changing the link to a Bluetooth
