Mercedes USERS;---BLUETOOTH PROBLEM
Goodmorning all...
I tried calling Mercedes customer care last night but of course it was after hours and I couldn't get anyone on the line, therefore I revert to my faithful CRACKBERRY USERS!
Ok here is my situation--my mom is visiting me and she drove her new S class Mercedes here to visit...Well my parents are NOT technologically inclined so I want to show her how my tour will link up via bluetooth etc and then we could talk using my phone through her car speakers...
SO...I was able to pair up my tour with her car easily...once they were paired I could not figure out for the life of me how to make a call, answer a call, play my music on my tour, basically nothing...I KNOW that the two units were paired and everything but was unsuccessful in anything else?
Can anyone lend me a hand on this issue? I mean once the units are paired what is the next step to send/receive a call or play my music? ANY HELP would be greatly appreciated?
I thought once the 2 units were paired and my cell phone rang it would automatically start going through the speakers in the car etc but obviously I thought wrong and I am not doing something right? Maybe a setting in my phone maybe the car?...........
THANKS GUYS and GALS
Mercedes Bluetooth and Blackberry Resolved
We have 2 blackberry 9700 (ATT) and new MB E550. I was able to connect one phone to car - and then 2nd phone to car - and tried to switch between them -- that didnt work -- didnt even always want to connect when you got in/out of the car. But PROBLEMS RESOLVED!
I know you will think this the simplest craziest = but its true.
I spent two visits at MB and read the book = and my MB techie figured this one out as he was throwing up his hands in frustration too....the last resort.
If you too can connect your phone to car - but doesnt always want to connect when you get in........TAKE OUT PHONE BATTERY - Let phone reset and I DONT KNOW WHY but it worked on both our phones!!
And we can do everything - auto connect - change phones as we change drivers.
Just remember
a) when you first pair phone to car and phone asks you if ok -- be sure to check "dont ask me again" when you say Yes.
b) when 2 of you in car with phones, Disengage bluetooth on one of the phones (driver?) as the car does not like have both at the same time.
