Connecting Bluetooth devices

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless networking technology. Via Bluetooth, you can connect nearby mobile devices wirelessly to send and receive data between connected devices. This enables you to use your devices effectively.

To use Bluetooth, you must first connect a Bluetooth-enabled device to your system, such as a mobile phone or an MP3 player. Ensure that the device you want to connect supports Bluetooth.

WARNING

Park your vehicle in a safe location before connecting Bluetooth devices. Distracted driving can cause a traffic accident and lead to personal injury or death.

NOTE

  • On your system, you can use only Bluetooth Handsfree and Audio features. Connect a mobile device that supports both features.

  • Some Bluetooth devices may cause malfunctions to the infotainment system or make interference noises. In this case, storing the device in a different location may resolve the problem.

  • Depending on the connected Bluetooth device or mobile phone, some functions may not be supported.

  • If the system is not stable due to a vehicle-Bluetooth device communication error, delete the paired devices and connect the Bluetooth devices again.

  • If Bluetooth connection is not stable, follow these steps to try again.

    1. Deactivate Bluetooth and reactivate it on the device. Then, reconnect the device.

    2. Turn the device off and on. Then, reconnect it.

    3. Remove the battery from the device and reinstall it. Then, turn the device on and reconnect it.

    4. Unregister the Bluetooth pairing on both the system and the device and then re-register and connect them.

  • The Bluetooth connection is unavailable when the device’s Bluetooth function is turned off. Be sure to turn on the device’s Bluetooth function.
