The selected mode will be indicated.

 


If the FM broadcast signal becomes weak, reception automatically changes from STEREO to MONO for reduced noise.

Tuning

The radio has the following tuning methods: Manual, Seek, Scan, Preset channel, and Auto memory tuning. The easiest way to tune stations is to set them on preset channels.

Manual tuning

Select the station by pressing the tuning button (, ) lightly.

Introduction

Bluetooth® Hands-Free outline

When a Bluetooth® device (mobile phone) is connected to the vehicle's Bluetooth® unit, a call can be made or received by pressing the talk button, pick-up button, or hang-up button on the audio remote control switch. For example, even if a device (mobile phone) is in your coat pocket, a call can be made without taking the device (mobile phone) out and operating it directly.

Bluetooth® audio outline

When a portable audio unit equipped with the Bluetooth® communication function is paired to the vehicle, you can listen to music stored on the paired portable audio device from the vehicle's speakers. It is not necessary to connect the portable audio device to the vehicle's external input terminal. After programming, operate the vehicle audio control panel to play/stop the audio.

 

 


  • For your safety, a device can be paired only when the vehicle is parked. If the vehicle starts to move, the pairing procedure will end. Park the vehicle in a safe place before pairing.

  • The communication range of a Bluetooth® equipped device is about 10 meters (32 ft) or less.

  • Basic audio operation is available using voice commands even if Bluetooth® is not connected.

 


Some Bluetooth® mobile devices are not compatible with the vehicle. Consult an Authorised Mazda Repairer, Mazda's call centre or Web support centre for information regarding Bluetooth® mobile device compatibility:

Applicable Bluetooth® specification (Recommended)

Ver. 2.0

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® audio device set-up” for details.)

  2. Press the audio control dial to determine the mode.

  3. The name of the currently linked Bluetooth® audio device is displayed.

    If no Bluetooth® audio device is currently linked, the name of the first device among the paired devices is displayed.

  4. Turn the audio control dial to select the name of the device you would like to link.

     

  5. Press the audio control dial to select the device you would like to link.

    The “” symbol disappears, and “PAIRING” flashes in the audio display.

     


    When “GO BACK” is selected and the audio control dial is pressed, the display returns to “LINK CHANGE”.

  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.

     


    • 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 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 luggage compartment 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® audio device”)

The device name displayed first is the device which is currently linked.

Available Language (Some Models)

The available languages are English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Dutch, and Portuguese. If the language setting is changed, all of the voice guidance and voice input commands are done in the selected language.

 


  • If the language setting is changed, device registration is maintained.

  • Phonebook records are not cleared, but each language has a separate phonebook. Therefore, entries created in one language will need to be re-entered in the phonebook of the new language.

  • Do these steps before you start driving. These less used functions are too distracting to undertake while driving until you are fully familiar with the system.

(Method 1)

  1. Press the pick-up button or talk button with a short press.

  2. Say: [Beep] “Setup”

  3. Prompt: “Select one of the following: Pairing options, confirmation prompts, language, password, select phone or select music player.”

  4. Say: [Beep] “Language”

  5. Prompt: “Select a language: English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Dutch, or Portuguese.”

  6. Say: [Beep] “French” (Speak the desired language:“English”, “French”, “Spanish”, “Italian”, “German”, “Dutch”, or “Portuguese”)

     


    Other language settings can also be made while in the current setting by saying the name of the language in the native pronunciation.

  7. Prompt: “French (Desired language) selected. Is this correct?”

  8. Say: [Beep] “Yes”

  9. Prompt: “Please wait. Switching to French phonebook. French selected.” (Spoken in the newly selected language).

(Method 2)

  1. Press the pick-up button or talk button with a short press.

  2. Say: [Beep] “French” (Say the desired language: “English”, “French”, “Spanish”, “Italian”, “German”, “Dutch”, or “Portuguese”). (Change the desired language by saying the language name.)

     


    Other language settings can also be made while in the current setting by saying the name of the language in the native pronunciation.

  3. Prompt: “Would you like to change the language to French (Desired language)?”

  4. Say: [Beep] “Yes”

  5. Prompt: “Please wait. Switching to French phonebook. French selected.” (Spoken in the newly selected language).

To prevent a deterioration in the voice recognition rate and voice quality, the following points should be observed:

  • The voice recognition cannot be performed while voice guidance or the beep sound is operating. Wait until the voice guidance or the beep sound is finished before saying your commands.

  • Dialects or different wording other than hands-free prompts cannot be recognised by voice recognition. Speak in the wording specified by the voice commands.

  • It is not necessary to face the microphone or approach it. Speak the voice commands while maintaining a safe driving position.

  • Do not speak too slow or too loud.

  • Speak clearly, without pausing between words or numbers.

  • Close the windows to reduce loud noises from outside the vehicle, or turn down the airflow of the air-conditioning system while Bluetooth® Hands-Free is being used.

  • Make sure the vents are not directing air up towards the microphone.
