Connecting cell phones
The procedure for connecting a cell phone varies, depending on the phone itself and on whether or not the phone has been previously paired with the infotainment system (see page 231 for instructions on pairing an external device).
There are two ways of pairing a cell phone to the hands-free system for the first time:
Method 1: using the vehicle's menus
1. Activate the cell phone’s Bluetooth® function to make the phone discoverable (refer to the phone’s owner’s manual if necessary) or go to www.volvocars.com.
2. Activate the vehicle’s Bluetooth® handsfree system by briefly pressing the TEL button. Continue by pressing OK/MENU.
3. Select Change phone and press OK/ MENU.
> Add phone will be displayed. If other cell phones have already been paired with the infotainment system, their names will also be displayed. Press OK/ MENU.
4. With the cell phone in discoverable mode, press OK/MENU.
> The infotainment system will search for cell phones that are in range, which takes approximately 30 seconds. Any phones detected will be displayed with their Bluetooth® names. The hands-free system’s Bluetooth® name will appear in the cell phone’s display as My Volvo Car.
5. Select one of the cell phones shown in the center console display.
6. Using the cell phone’s keypad, enter the digits shown in the center console display and press the button on the cell phone used to confirm a choice.
Method 2: using the cell phone’s menus
1. Activate the hands-free system by briefly pressing the TEL button in the center console.
If there is a cell phone connected, disconnect it from the hands-free system.
2. Make the vehicle discoverable via the
Bluetooth® function by pressing OK/
MENU and activating the menu selection
Phone settings
Discoverable.
3. Perform a search with the cell phone's Bluetooth® function (see the cell phone's user's guide if necessary).
4. Select My Volvo Car in the list of devices shown in the cell phone’s display.
5. When prompted, enter a PIN code of your choice in the cell phone using the cell phone's keypad. Enter the same PIN code in the infotainment system using the system's keypad in the center console.
6. Connect to My Volvo Car from the cell phone.
The cell phone will be paired (registered) and will be connected automatically to the infotainment system. For more information on pairing and connecting a cell phone, see page 237.
