Phone
● This system is not guaranteed to
operate with all Bluetooth
®
devices.
● If your cellular phone does not support

®
, this system cannot func-
tion.
● In the following conditions, the system
may not function:
• The cellular phone is turned off.
• The current position is outside the
communication area.
• The cellular phone is not connected.
• The cellular phone has a low battery.
● When using the hands-free system or
Bluetooth
®
audio and Wi-Fi
®
functions
at the same time, the following prob-
lems may occur:
• The Bluetooth
®
connection may be
cut.
• Noise may be heard on the
Bluetooth
®

● Bluetooth
®
uses the 2.4 GHz fre-

connec-
tion and Bluetooth
®
connection are
being used simultaneously, each con-
nection may be affected.
● If a Bluetooth
®
device is attempting to
connect to the vehicle while another
device is connected as a Bluetooth
®
audio device or connected using the
hands-free system or Miracast
®
(via
Wi-Fi
®
), the communication speed
may decrease or malfunctions may
occur, such as image distortion or
audio skipping. If a Bluetooth
®
device
is connected to the system, the inter-
ference it may cause will be reduced.
When carrying a device with its
Bluetooth
®
connection enabled, make
sure to register it to the system and
connect it or disable its Bluetooth
®
function.
● When a device is connected via
Bluetooth
®
, the Bluetooth
®

the status bar will be displayed in
blue. (P.11)
Some basics
The hands-free system
enables calls to be made and
received without having to take
your hands off the steering
wheel.
This system supports
Bluetooth
®
. Bluetooth
®
is a
wireless data system that
enables cellular phones to be
used without being connected
by a cable or placed in a cra-
dle.
The operating procedure of the
phone is explained here.
When an Apple CarPlay con-
nection is established, phone
functions will be performed by
Apple CarPlay instead of the
hands-free system.
WARNING
● While driving, do not operate a cel-
lular phone.
● Your audio unit is fitted with
Bluetooth
®
antennas. People with
implantable cardiac pacemakers,
cardiac resynchronization therapy-
pacemakers or implantable cardio-
verter defibrillators should maintain
a reasonable distance between
themselves and the Bluetooth
®
antennas. The radio waves may
affect the operation of such
devices.
