Auxiliary input jack (Line in)-(if equipped)

WARNING:

Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle

control, accident and injury. Mazda strongly recommends that

Your vehicle may be equipped with
an auxiliary input jack (AIJ). The
auxiliary input jack provides a way
to connect your portable music
player to the in-vehicle audio
system. This allows the audio from a
portable music player to be played
through the vehicle speakers with
high fidelity. To achieve optimal
performance, please observe the
following instructions when
attaching your portable music device to the audio system.
Required equipment:

1. Any portable music player designed to be used with headphones
2. An audio extension cable with stereo male 1/8 in. (3.5 mm)

connectors at each end

Entertainment Systems

REVIEW COPY ——
2010 B-Series (mbs), Owners Guide (own2002), 1st Printing, Market:
Canadian_French (fr_can)

To play your portable music player using the auxiliary input jack:

1. Begin with the vehicle parked and the radio turned off.

2. Ensure that the battery in your portable music player is new or fully

charged and that the device is turned off.

3. Attach one end of the audio extension cable to the headphone

output of your player and the other end of the audio extension cable
to the AIJ in your vehicle.

4. Turn the radio on, using either a tuned FM station or a CD loaded

into the system. Adjust the volume to a comfortable listening level.

5. Turn the portable music player on and adjust the volume to 1/2 the

volume.

6. Press AUX on the vehicle radio repeatedly until LINE IN appears in

the display.
You should hear audio from your portable music player although it
may be low.

7. Adjust the sound on your portable music player until it reaches the

level of the FM station or CD by switching back and forth between
the AUX and FM or CD controls.

Troubleshooting:

1. Do not connect the audio input jack to a line level output. Line level

outputs are intended for connection to a home stereo and are not
compatible with the AIJ. The AIJ will only work correctly with
devices that have a headphone output with a volume control.

2. Do not set the portable music player’s volume level higher than is

necessary to match the volume of the CD or FM radio in your audio
system as this will cause distortion and will reduce sound quality.
Many portable music players have different output levels, so not all
players should be set at the same levels. Some players will sound
best at full volume and others will need to be set at a lower volume.

3. If the music sounds distorted at lower listening levels, turn the

portable music player volume down. If the problems persists, replace
or recharge the batteries in the portable music player.

4. The portable music player must be controlled in the same manner

when it is used with headphones as the AIJ does not provide control
(play, pause, etc.) over the attached portable music player.

5. For safety reasons, connecting or adjusting the settings on your

portable music player should not be attempted while the vehicle is
moving. Also, the portable music player should be stored in a secure
location, such as the center console or the glove box, when the
vehicle is in motion. The audio extension cable must be long enough
to allow the portable music player to be safely stored while the
vehicle is in motion.

GENERAL AUDIO INFORMATION

Radio frequencies:

AM and FM frequencies are established by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC). Those frequencies are:

AM: 530, 540–1700, 1710 kHz

FM: 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz

Radio reception factors:

There are three factors that can affect radio reception:
• Distance/strength: The further you travel from an FM station, the

weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.

• Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences,

traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.

• Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal

may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency
is displayed.

CD/CD player care

Do:
• Handle discs by their edges only.

(Never touch the playing
surface).

• Inspect discs before playing.
• Clean only with an approved CD

cleaner.

Entertainment Systems

REVIEW COPY ——
2010 B-Series (mbs), Owners Guide (own2002), 1st Printing, Market:
Canadian_French (fr_can)

• Wipe discs from the center out.

Don’t:
• Expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended periods

of time.

• Clean using a circular motion.
CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 4.75 in
(12 cm) audio compact discs only. Due to technical
incompatibility, certain recordable and re-recordable compact
discs may not function correctly when used in Mazda CD players.

Do not use any irregular shaped
CDs or discs with a scratch
protection film attached.

CDs with homemade paper
(adhesive) labels should not be
inserted into the CD player as
the label may peel and cause the
CD to become jammed. It is
recommended that homemade
CDs be identified with
permanent felt tip marker rather
than adhesive labels. Ballpoint pens may damage CDs. Please
contact your authorized dealer for further information.

Audio system warranty and service

Refer to the Warranty Information Booklet/Customer Information
Guide for audio system warranty information. If service is necessary, see
your authorized Mazda dealership.

Operating your audio system with MP3-formatted discs

Your MP3 system recognizes MP3 discs upon insertion and provides you
with two ways to listen to these discs:
• Flat file mode– This mode ignores any folders on the discs and plays

all MP3 files found in any folder on the disc exactly as if there were
no folders on the disc.

When in flat file mode press

to access the previous/next track.

• Directory mode– This mode finds all of the folders on the disc and

then allows you to pick any folder on the disc and play only the MP3
files in that folder.

When in directory mode press

to access the previous/next

MP3 file in the current folder only.

To change directories (folders), press MENU and then press

to select the desired directory (folder).

Changing between flat file mode and directory mode

Your radio MP3 system will default to directory mode when an MP3 disc
is first inserted. When the MP3 system is in directory mode, the DIR
icon will be illuminated on the radio display.
• To change from directory mode to flat file mode while playing an MP3

CD: Press MENU until the radio display reads Directory. Then
press

. The display will change from DIR to Flat File. The MP3

system is now in flat file mode.

• To change from flat file mode to directory mode while playing an MP3

CD: Press MENU until the radio display reads Flat File. Then
press

. The display will change from Flat File to DIR. The MP3

system is now in directory mode.

MP3 track and folder structure

Your MP3 system recognizes MP3 individual tracks and folder structure
as follows:
• There are two different modes for MP3 disc playback: MP3 directory

mode (system default) and MP3 flat file mode. For more information
on directory and flat file mode, refer to Sample MP3 structure
following.

• MP3 flat file mode ignores any folder structure on the MP3 disc. The

player numbers each MP3 track on the disc (noted by the .mp3 file
extension) from T001 to a maximum of T255.

Entertainment Systems

REVIEW COPY ——
2010 B-Series (mbs), Owners Guide (own2002), 1st Printing, Market:
Canadian_French (fr_can)

Note:

The maximum number of playable MP3 files may be less

depending on the structure of the CD and exact model of radio
present.

• MP3 directory mode represents a folder structure consisting of one

level of folders. The CD player numbers all MP3 tracks on the disc
(noted by the .mp3 file extension) and all folders containing MP3 files,
from F001 (folder) T001 (track) to F253 T255.

• Creating discs with only one level of folders will help with navigation

through the disc files.

Sample MP3 structure

If you are burning your own MP3
discs, it is important to understand
how the system will read the
structures you create. While various
files may be present, (files with
extensions other than mp3), only
files with the .mp3 extension will be
played. Other files will be ignored
by the system. This enables you to
use the same MP3 disc for a variety
of tasks on your work computer,
home computer and your in vehicle
system.

In flat file mode, the system will display and play the structure as if it
were only one level deep (all .mp3 files will be played, regardless of
being in a specific folder. In directory mode, the system will only play
the .mp3 files in the current folder.

Satellite radio information (if equipped)

Satellite radio channels:

SIRIUS

威 broadcasts a variety of music, news,

sports, weather, traffic and entertainment satellite radio channels. For
more information and a complete list of SIRIUS

威 satellite radio channels,

visit www.sirius.com in the United States, www.sirius-canada.ca in
Canada, or call SIRIUS

威 at 1–888–539–7474.

Satellite radio reception factors:

To receive the satellite signal, your

vehicle has been equipped with a satellite radio antenna located on the
roof of your vehicle. The vehicle roof provides the best location for an
unobstructed, open view of the sky, a requirement of a satellite radio
system. Like AM/FM, there are several factors that can affect satellite
radio reception performance:
• Antenna obstructions: For optimal reception performance, keep the

antenna clear of snow and ice build-up and keep luggage and other
material as far away from the antenna as possible.

• Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway

overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and thunderstorms can
interfere with your reception.

• Station overload: When you pass a ground based broadcast repeating

tower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one and result in an
audio mute.

Unlike AM/FM audible static, you will hear an audio mute when there is
a satellite radio signal interference. Your radio display may display NO
SIGNAL to indicate the interference.

SIRIUS

威 satellite radio service: SIRIUS威 satellite radio is a

subscription based satellite radio service that broadcasts music, sports,
news and entertainment programming. A service fee is required in order
to receive SIRIUS

威 service. Vehicles that are equipped with a factory

installed SIRIUS

威 satellite radio system include hardware and a limited

subscription term, which begins on the date of sale or lease of the
vehicle.

For information on extended subscription terms, the online media player
and other SIRIUS

威 features, please contact SIRIUS威 at 1–888–539–7474.
