Most new Nissan vehicles and many Certified Pre-Owned Nissan vehicles come with an incredibly useful feature: Nissan Bluetooth connectivity for both Apple and Android devices! Since Bluetooth phone pairing can initially be tricky for some, Wolfchase Nissan put together this helpful guide for Nissan Bluetooth phone pairing. Find your device below to get started!
Follow these instructions for Nissan Bluetooth pairing with an Apple iPhone:
- Go to settings > Bluetooth and make sure your device’s Bluetooth function is on.
- If you have a Nissan vehicle with navigation, press the phone button on your vehicle audio system. Then choose connect > connect new device. If you don’t have navigation, press the Enter/Setting button on your vehicle. Then go to Bluetooth > Add phone.
- Look back at your device and go to settings > Bluetooth. Now select MY-CAR.
- Your device and your vehicle should now be displaying a PIN number. If they match, you can accept the pairing request on your device!
Fortunately, if you’re trying to connect an Android phone to Nissan Bluetooth, the steps are the same as those outlined above for an iPhone:
- Go to settings > Bluetooth and make sure your device’s Bluetooth function is on.
- If you have a Nissan vehicle with navigation, press the phone button on your vehicle audio system. Then choose connect > connect new device. If you don’t have navigation, press the Enter/Setting button on your vehicle. Then go to Bluetooth > Add phone.
- Look back at your device and go to settings > Bluetooth. Now select MY-CAR.
- Your device and your vehicle should now be displaying a PIN number. If they match, you can accept the pairing request on your device!
Are the above steps not working? Bluetooth technology is dependable in most cases, but sometimes you’ll have to fiddle with it to get a connection. Here are a few common solutions to connection problems:
- Other Devices: Probably the most common culprit in Bluetooth phone pairing problems is the existence of other devices. Have anyone who may have a lingering connection to your Nissan model’s Bluetooth go to their phone menu and disconnect — it’s your turn!
- Proximity: Place your phone close to the system to optimize signal strength.
- Device Power: Make sure your device has a good amount of charge or plug it in; sometimes phones behave strangely when they are low on energy.
- Metal Objects: Move away any coins or metal objects that may be close to your Bluetooth device.
