In this video, we will see how to activate the Bluetooth function on a BMW 1 Series E87 version: we activate the instrument panel and press the phone button for a few seconds, after which the message "please pair the phone" will appear. We will then click on "search devices"; of course, we will need to use phones compatible with our car. A code will appear that we will need to associate with our device, which must obviously have Bluetooth activated, and we will enter the password assigned to us by the car system; we allow the synchronization of contacts, and we see that the pairing was successful: from now on, when we get in the car, the vehicle will recognize the device and connect automatically.
