Some car radios allow you to connect your mobile phone via a wireless Bluetooth connection to use the speakers as a hands-free system. To connect, you need to pair the phone with the radio using a password.

This process is very simple: select the phone symbol in the radio menu, press the central button to start searching for a Bluetooth transmitter, and perform the same operation on your phone. When the two devices recognise each other, you need to enter a four-digit code on the phone and simultaneously the same code on the radio using the appropriate buttons.

If the operation is correct, the two devices connect and remain connected, so that every time you enter the vehicle, the connection occurs automatically without further intervention.
