Bluetooth ® Device pairing, connection problems
| Symptom | Cause | Solution method |
| Unable to perform pairing | — | First make sure the device is compatible with the Bluetooth ® unit, and then check whether the Bluetooth® function and the Find Mode/Visible setting *1 on the device are turned on. If pairing is still not possible after this, contact an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer or Mazda Bluetooth ® Hands-Free Customer Service. |
| Pairing cannot be performed again | The pairing information paired to the Bluetooth ® unit or device is not recognised correctly. | Perform pairing using the following
procedure.

| Unable to perform pairing | The Bluetooth ® function and the Find Mode/Visible setting *1 on the device may turn off automatically after a period of time has elapsed depending on the device. | Check whether the Bluetooth ® function and the Find Mode/Visible setting*1 on the device are turned on and pairing or reconnect. |
| Does not connect automatically when starting the engine | ||
| Automatically connects, but then disconnects suddenly | ||
| Disconnects intermittently | The device is in a location in which radio wave interference can occur easily, such as inside a bag in a rear seat, in a rear pocket of a pair of pants. | Move the device to a location in which radio wave interference is less likely to occur. |

*1 Setting which detects the existence of a device external to the Bluetooth ® unit
NOTE
- When the OS of the device is updated, the pairing information may be deleted. If this happens, reprogramme the pairing information to the Bluetooth ® unit.
- If you pair your phone which has already been paired to your vehicle more than once in the past, you need to delete “Mazda” on your mobile device. Then, execute the Bluetooth® search on your mobile device once again, and pair to a newly detected “Mazda”.
- Before you pair your device, make sure that Bluetooth ® is “ON”, both on your phone and on the vehicle.
