Tesla Model Y: Pairing a Bluetooth Phone

Pairing allows you to use your Bluetooth-capable phone hands-free to make and receive phone calls, access your contact list, recent calls, etc. It also allows you to play media files from your phone. Once a phone is paired, Model Y can connect to it whenever the phone is within range.

To pair a phone, follow these steps while sitting inside Model Y:

1. Ensure both the touchscreen and the phone are powered on.

2. On your phone, enable Bluetooth and ensure it is discoverable.

NOTE: On some phones, this may require you to go to Bluetooth Settings for the remainder of the procedure.

3. Touch the Bluetooth icon located at the top of the Controls screen.

4. On the touchscreen, touch Add New Device > Start Search. A list of all available Bluetooth devices within operating distance displays on the Bluetooth settings screen.

5. Choose the phone with which you want to pair. Within a few seconds, the Bluetooth settings screen displays a randomly generated number. Your phone also display a number.

6. Check that the number displayed on your phone matches the number on the Bluetooth settings screen. Then, on your phone, confirm that you want to pair.

7. If prompted on your phone, specify whether you want to allow Model Y to access your personal information, such as calendar, contacts and media files.

When paired, Model Y automatically connects to the phone, and the Bluetooth settings screen displays the Bluetooth symbol next to the phone's name to indicate that the connection is active.

You can display the Bluetooth settings screen at any time and change the settings associated with a connected device. For example, you can designate a connected phone as the Priority Device. This is useful in situations where you have connected more than one phone, and both phones are frequently used in Model Y at the same time. Model Y automatically attempts to connect to the priority device before others. If a priority device is not specified, or is not within range, Model Y connects to the most recently used phone (if applicable).
