How to Connect a Phone to the Bluetooth in a Mercedes-Benz GLC260?

First, establish a pairing relationship between the phone and the vehicle's Bluetooth device. Turn on the Bluetooth functions of both the phone and the vehicle's Bluetooth device, and set them to be visible to everyone. Search for Bluetooth devices on the phone, select the vehicle's Bluetooth once found, and pair and connect. Once pairing is complete, the connection will be successful.
When I first got my Mercedes-Benz GLC260, the Bluetooth connection seemed complicated but turned out to be quite simple. After getting in the car, start the engine first, but don't rush to drive. On the central control screen, find the main menu, tap the 'Settings' button, and select the 'Phone and Network' option. Make sure Bluetooth is turned on and visible, then take out your phone and go to Bluetooth settings to search for new devices. A name like 'Mercedes GLC260' should appear in the phone's list—click to pair. Sometimes a password prompt will pop up; entering 0000 or 1234 usually does the trick. After successful pairing, remember to test it by making a call to see if the sound comes through the car's speakers. It's safest to complete the first setup while parked to avoid distractions while driving. Once connected, it's super convenient—it automatically reconnects every time you start the car, allowing smooth music playback or call handling. I also use it to connect to Spotify for wireless playback, and the sound quality is much clearer than with a wired connection, saving a lot of time.
