Connecting a phone to the car via
Bluetooth for the first time
Pair a Bluetooth-enabled phone to the vehicle to
make calls, send/receive text messages and
wirelessly play media from the vehicle, or con-
nect the vehicle to the Internet.
Two Bluetooth devices can be connected at the
same time, but in that case, only one will be used
for wireless playback. The most recently paired
phone will be automatically connected to make
calls, send/receive text messages, play media or
use as an Internet connection. To change what
the phone is used for when it is paired, go to
Bluetooth Devices
settings.
After the device has been connected/registered
for the first time via Bluetooth, the device no
longer needs to be visible/searchable. It just
needs to have Bluetooth activated. To connect
the vehicle to the Internet using a phone, the
phone's Wi-Fi sharing function (personal hot-
spot/tethering) must be activated. A maximum of
20 paired Bluetooth devices can be stored in the
vehicle.
There are two ways to pair a phone to the vehicle.
Searching for the phone from the vehicle or
searching for the vehicle from the phone.
Option 1 - searching for the phone from
the vehicle
1. Make the phone discoverable/visible using
its Bluetooth function.
