Cause
For about three seconds after
starting a call, the Bluetooth
unit's Noise Suppression function
requires time to adapt to the call
environment.
The volume is set at zero or low.
Solution method
Regarding the causes indicated
on the left, be careful with how
you speak. In addition, when
numbers are spoken in a sequence,
recognition ability will improve
if no stop is placed between the
numbers.
A poor connection or malfunction
with the microphone may have
occurred. Consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer.
If there is any malfunction after
checking the pairing situation, check
®
for device pairing or connection
problems.
By carrying out the following
measures, the rate of recognition
will improve.
Clear memory from the phonebook
which is not used very often.
Avoid shortened names, use full
names. (Recognition improves the
longer the name is. By not using
names such as "Mum", "Dad",
recognition will improve.)
Guidance can be skipped by quickly
pressing and releasing the Talk
button.
Solution method
®
This does not indicate a problem
with the device.
Increase the volume.
