pairing multiple phones with b-tooth

R80TER · 03-15-2010, 04:11 AM

Can i pair more than one phone to my car? is it possible to have a "master" phone?

so when i drive it, my phone pairs, when the mrs drives it, her phone pairs....

What would happen if we were both in the car??

RFTM man!

You can pair multiple phones.

So whichever phone is in range it will connect to.

If more than one paired phone is within range, the car will pair in the order of the paired phones list, so you can move up/down phones within the list to chose the order of priority.

So if you put your phone top of the list, but you and the missus are in the car, your phone will pair.

If both phones are paired, turn off one and the other will take precedence. Once in the car with the appropriate phone linked, turn the other phone back on.

But if the phone you turn back on is higher up the priority list, then it will drop the lower phone and reconnect to the first one again?

Not according to my manual. The first one that it recognizes becomes prime until disconnected.
