Bluetooth® Hands-Free outline
When a Bluetooth® device (mobile phone) is connected to the vehicle's Bluetooth® unit via radio wave transmission, 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, or by operating the centre display. 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.
For safety reasons, operation of the centre display is disabled while the vehicle is being driven. However, items not displayed in grey can be operated using the commander switch while the vehicle is being driven.
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:

Prompt: “YYYY is this correct?”
Say: [Beep] “Yes” or “No”
If “Yes”, go to Step 14. If “No”, the procedure returns to Step 9.
Prompt: “Your new pairing pin code is YYYY. Use this pin code when pairing devices to the Hands free system. Do you want to pair a device now?”
Say: [Beep] “Yes” or “No”
If “Yes”, the system switches to the device registration mode. If “No”, the system returns to standby status.
Device pairing
To use Bluetooth® Hands-Free, the device equipped with Bluetooth® has to be paired to the Bluetooth® unit using the following procedure.
A maximum of seven devices including hands-free mobile phones and Bluetooth® audio devices can be paired to one vehicle.
A device can be paired only when the vehicle is parked. If the vehicle starts to move, the pairing procedure will end. Pairing is dangerous while driving - pair up your device before you start driving. Park the car in a safe place before paired.
If a Bluetooth® device has already been paired to the vehicle as a Bluetooth® audio device, it does not need to be paired again when using the device as a hands-free mobile phone. Conversely, it does not need to be paired again as a Bluetooth® audio device if it has already been paired as a hands-free mobile phone.
Since the communication range of a Bluetooth® equipped device is about 10 meters (32 ft), if a device is placed within a 10-meter (32 ft) radius of the vehicle, it may be detected/paired unintentionally while another device is being paired.
Activate the Bluetooth® application of the device.
For the operation of the device, refer to its instruction manual.
Press the pick-up button or talk button with a short press.
Say: [Beep] “Setup”
Prompt: “Select one of the following: Pairing options, confirmation prompts, language, password, select phone or select music player.”
Say: [Beep] “Pairing options”
Prompt: “Select one of the following: Pair, edit, delete, list, or set pin code.”
Say: [Beep] “Pair”
Prompt: “Start the pairing process on your Bluetooth® device. Your pin code is 0000 (XXXX). Input this on your Bluetooth® device. See device manual for instructions.”
Using the device, perform a search for the Bluetooth® device (Peripheral device).
For the operation of the device, refer to its instruction manual.
Select “Mazda” from the device list searched by the device.
Input the 4-digit pairing code to the device.
Prompt: “Please say the name of the device after the beep.”
Say: [Beep] “XXXX - - -” (Speak a “device tag”, an arbitrary name for the device.)
Example: “Stan's device.”
Say a paired “device tag” within 10 seconds.
If more than two devices are to be paired, they cannot be paired with the same or similar “device tag”.
Prompt: “Adding XXXXXX - - - (Ex. “Stan's device”) (Device tag). Is this correct?”
Say: [Beep] “Yes”
Prompt: “Pairing complete”
After a device is registered, the system automatically identifies the device. By activating Bluetooth® Hands-Free again, or by activating Bluetooth® Hands-Free first after switching the ignition from OFF to ACC, the system reads out a voice guidance, “XXXXXX - - - (Ex. “Stan's device”) (Device tag) is connected”.
When the pairing is completed, the symbol is displayed.
Some Bluetooth® audio devices need a certain amount of time before the symbol is displayed.
Device registration can also be done by operating the audio unit.
Depending on the device, the registration status may be lost after a certain period of time. If this occurs, repeat the entire process from Step 1.

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.
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
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.)
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.
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.
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.
Press the audio control dial while the input PIN code is displayed.
“PAIRING” flashes on the display.
Operate the Bluetooth® audio device and set it to the pairing mode while “PAIRING” is flashing.
