PAIRING A BLUETOOTH-ENABLED MOBILE PHONE
As we go through these demonstrations, keep in mind the difference between
pairing and connecting. Pairing means activating the partnership between the
Bluetooth-enabled device and the SYNC system. It needs to be completed
only once, and after the pairing is complete, the SYNC system can access the
Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone or digital media player. Up to 12 Bluetooth
devices can be paired to SYNC.
Connected means the partnership is active and SYNC can access the device,
whether it’s a Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone or a digital media player. As far
as procedures, let’s start with Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones and then we’ll
cover the media players that play digital music.
HOW TO PAIR A BLUETOOTH-ENABLED MOBILE PHONE
Here’s how to pair a phone and download the phonebook contacts, which is
part of the pairing process. Basically, you just follow the prompts and the
system leads you through.
1. With the ignition on, the radio on, and the vehicle stopped, press
PHONE on the navigation screen.
2. The screen will read NO PHONE CONNECTED. Press
SETTINGS to go to the SETTINGS tab.
Note: Not all phones support all the
SYNC calling features.
