Using Bluetooth®
The first step in using Bluetooth® is pairing your device with your car. This allows your vehicle to recognize your phone and automatically connect to it when you get into your car.
- Turn on your Mazda vehicle and keep it in park. From there, turn Bluetooth® on in your phone’s settings.
- On the car’s touchscreen, press the “settings” icon.
- Select “Bluetooth®” and turn it on.
- Select “add new device.”
- Hold your phone up and search for nearby Bluetooth® devices. The Mazda CX-5 should show up as an option.
- Compare the pairing codes to make sure they’re the same, then touch “yes.”
- Your phone will then be able to play audio through your vehicle. It will stop when you deactivate Bluetooth® or when the car is turned off.
Using Android Auto™ or ApplePlay®
The steps for connecting your phone are similar for both Android and Apple devices. If your Android is 6.0 or newer, you’ll be able to connect it to your Mazda CX-5. Ensure you have the Android Auto™ app downloaded on your phone.
Grab your phone and the corresponding USB port while your vehicle is in park. Automated messages will appear on the screen prompting you to connect your phone to your vehicle. The overall process should only take a few minutes!
