What is HD Radio™ Technology and  
how does it work?  
HD Radio™ Technology is the digital  
evolution of analog AM/FM radio. Your  
radio product has a special receiver which  
allows it to receive digital broadcasts  
(where available) in addition to the analog  
broadcasts it already receives. Digital  
broadcasts have better sound quality than  
analog broadcasts as digital broadcasts  
provide free, crystal clear audio. For more  
information, and a guide to available radio  
stations and programming, please visit

AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control  
Profile) Ver. 1.0/1.3/1.4  
A2DP is a profile which transmits only  
®
audio to the Bluetooth unit. If your  
®
Bluetooth audio device corresponds only  
to A2DP, but not AVRCP, you cannot  
operate it using the control panel of the  
vehicle's audio system. In this case, only  
the operations on the mobile device are  
available the same as when a portable  
audio device for a non-compliant  
®
Bluetooth device is connected to the  
AUX terminal.
