phone changes or the cell phone
is deleted from the system. .
Only one paired cell phone can
be connected to the Bluetooth
system at a time. .
If multiple paired cell phones are
within range of the system, the
system connects to the first
available paired cell phone in the
order that they were first paired
to the system. To connect to a
different paired phone, see
