It is a common misconception that you absolutely must purchase a vehicle with Bluetooth technology in order to connect your Bluetooth devices. People take this assumption and use it to limit which Subaru they want to purchase. This is unfortunate because there are a lot of great Subaru makes and models on the market. There is no reason to limit yourself to the ones that have Bluetooth technology installed.
You can install BlueConnect to a Subaru without standard Bluetooth technology installed and then you will be able to use your Bluetooth devices just fine. BlueConnect will provide you with all of the same hands-free phone calls and voice comments that traditional Bluetooth technology provides. The best part is that the technology works with the audio system of your vehicle. The chances of you having to install or make very many chances to your vehicle to use this technology is unlikely.
How Do You Know if Your Phone is Compatible?
You should be able to use a phone compatibility tool to make sure your phone can work with BlueConnect. If your phone is not listed and has not been tested, then it will not work. There is a simple tool on the main Subaru website that allows you to input the make, model and year of your car along with the details of your specific phone to determine compatibility.
What Do You Do If Blue Connect Does Not Automatically Connect?
You have to make sure the Bluetooth functions on your Subaru and on your devices are switched "ON". You also need to make sure that you have BlueConnect marked as a device that your phone or tablet can trust. Once you alter these settings, your phone, tablet, or other Bluetooth device will automatically connect to your BlueConnect technology any time that it is in range.
Your Device's User Manual Can Help You
If you are still confused or unsure of how to connect a specific device to the Bluetooth connect, you are going to need to refer to the user manual that came with your specific device. It is possible that there are settings that need to be changed by the user and signals that need to be turned on before the Bluetooth will work properly. The user manual of your device should give you all of the specific details.
It is important to keep in mind that BlueConnect technology was not designed to work with Bluetooth adapters. This is technology that was created to work with devices that already have Bluetooth technology built into them. This just means that if your phone did not come with Bluetooth technology installed into it, it is not going to connect to the BlueConnect technology regardless of what you do to it.
