Precautions when using Bluetooth
®
de
vices
Pay special attention to the following information when using a Bluetooth
®
device
on the multimedia system.
INFORMATION
● The v
ehicle uses Bluetooth
®
communications on the 2.4GHz frequency band. Per-
formance may vary depending on various factors.
● Simultaneous use of Wi-Fi
®
using the same 2.4 GHz band wireless communication as
Bluetooth
®
could cause mutual interference.
● Mutual interference between Bluetooth
®
and Wi-Fi
®
could cause issues such as
garbled video, audio skipping, or reduced communication speed.
The effect of interference will be reduced if a Bluetooth
®
device is connected. If a
Bluetooth
®
device has been registered, connecting with the registered device could
improve this issue. (The connection of a Bluetooth
®
device can be checked with by
the status icon on the multimedia system screen.)
● Using a Bluetooth
®
cellular phone simultaneously with a wireless device could nega-
tively affect communication for each.
● The simultaneous use of a Wi-Fi
®
function (Wi-Fi
®
, Wi-Fi
®
Hotspot) and Bluetooth
®
device that use the same 2.4 GHz band for wireless communication could negatively
affect communication for each. Turning off the Wi-Fi
®
function may allow for use
without issue.
● When a Bluetooth
®
device is connected via Bluetooth
®
, its battery will be consumed
more quickly than normal.
● Bluetooth
®
connections will be disconnected during emergency calls. Any discon-
nected Bluetooth
®
devices will be reconnected once the emergency call is finished.
WARNING
● F
or safety, the driver should not operate the cellular phone itself while driving when
using hands-free calling.
● Stop the vehicle in a safe location prior to calling. If a call is received while driving, be
sure to drive safely and keep the call short.
NOTICE
● D
o not use a Bluetooth
®
device near the multimedia system. Coming too close could
worsen sound quality or the connection.
