Set Up A Bluetooth Gps Car Navigation System

Set Up a Bluetooth GPS Car Navigation System


One of the conveniences of modern GPS systems is that they often carry Bluetooth capability. This is very convenient if you use a lot of Bluetooth devices on the road, such as a headset or Bluetooth-enabled phone. Syncing your devices with your GPS is a fairly easy process, and once you are done, you'll be able to use your GPS as well as your Bluetooth-enabled devices together.


Instructions


1. Go to the Bluetooth options area of your GPS navigation system. This is normally in the Settings or Options menu. Then select the "Find Bluetooth devices" option. Depending on your GPS device, there may be an additional option to select the type of device you want to sync. Once you are finished with these options, your GPS should be in "sync" or "discovery" mode.


2. Sync your devices with the GPS. Simply follow the normal procedure for your headset or telephone for broadcasting the signal to the GPS system. If you have been successful, a notification will pop up on your GPS system that the device has been found. Simply confirm that you would like to sync the two devices to continue.


3. Test your device with the GPS. If you are using a headset, you should be able to hear the turn-by-turn directions in your earpiece. If you have synced your phone, try making and receiving calls through the Bluetooth GPS system. If you have synced a PDA with it, see if you can get the directions beamed to your PDA.
