What is Bluetooth Audio?

Bluetooth audio outline

By programming portable audio devices equipped with the Bluetooth communication function to the vehicle's Bluetooth unit, you can listen to music or audio recorded on these audio devices from the vehicle's speakers.

After programming, operate the audio system's control panel or the navigation system to play/stop the music or audio.

CAUTION:

the Bluetooth audio system while the vehicle is stopped. Always program audio devices to the Bluetooth audio system while the vehicle is stopped.

audio devices can be used, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer when purchasing or Because only specified Bluetooth audio devices can be used, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer when purchasing or changing devices.

Bluetooth audio devices which correspond to specified Bluetooth versions and profiles can be Bluetooth-connected to the vehicle's Bluetooth unit, however, even among these devices are ones which cannot be Bluetoothconnected or have limited functionality. Each device to be used with the vehicle's Bluetooth unit needs to be checked individually for compatibility.

Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer concerning device compatibility.

Applicable Bluetooth specification

Ver. 2.0 or higher

Audio profile

- A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) Ver. 1.0.

- AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile) Ver. 1.0.

A2DP is a profile which transmits only audio to the Bluetooth unit. If your Bluetooth audio device corresponds only to A2DP, but not AVRCP, you cannot operate it using the control panel of the vehicle's audio or navigation systems. In this case, the Bluetooth audio device can be operated by controlling the device itself, the same as when a portable audio system without the Bluetooth communication function is connected to the AUX terminal.

NOTE:

- It may not be possible to play a Bluetooth audio device if it is placed anywhere transmission is compromised, such as inside a metal container or the trunk. Move the Bluetooth audio device to a location where transmission is possible.

- Battery consumption of Bluetooth audio devices is higher while Bluetoothconnected.

- If a non-Bluetooth device is to be used, a commercially-available Bluetooth adapter is required. When playing an audio device with a Bluetooth adapter installed, programming of the audio device may not be possible or audio may not be heard from the vehicle speakers if the connection of the adapter and the device is poor. If this happens, check if the Bluetooth adapter is properly connected.
