phone" section (Y page 94).
After successful authorization, the Blue-
tooth ®
audio device is connected and starts
playing.
i With some Bluetooth ®
audio devices, play-
back must initially be started on the device
itself, so that the multimedia system can play
the audio data. Bluetooth ®
must also be given
as a media output location for the audio
device used.
i The Bluetooth ®
audio device must support
Bluetooth ®
version 2.1 for connection via
Secure Simple Pairing. The multimedia sys-
tem creates a six-digit code which is dis-
played simultaneously on both devices that
are to be connected.
For some Bluetooth ®
audio devices, the pair-
ing must also be confirmed within 10 sec-
onds. External authorization
If the multimedia system does not find your
Bluetooth ®
audio device (Y page 154), this may
be due to particular security settings on your
