Enter the phone setup menu via the image (phone) button, select the [Bluetooth] key, and then check if the Bluetooth® is set to on (default setting is on, push the <ENTER> button if not).

To setup the Bluetooth® system to pair (connect or register) your preferred mobile phone, follow the following procedure.

To pair a device, use the [Scan devices] key or the [Pair device] key.

Use [Del. device] key to delete one of the existing paired devices.

When successfully paired a notification message will be displayed, then the audio system display will return to the current audio source display. During connection the following status icons will be displayed (top left of the display): Signal strength (image), Battery status* (image) and Bluetooth® “ON” (image).

*: If the low battery message comes on, the Bluetooth® device must be recharged soon.

The pairing procedure and operation may vary according to device type and compatibility. See the Bluetooth®owner’s manual for further details.
