3 Answers
First, select 'Phone' on the multimedia screen's home interface. On the pop-up interface, continue by selecting 'Connect Mobile Phone'. At this point, the car's multimedia system will automatically search for the phone's Bluetooth name. Once the phone name appears in the list, click on it to connect. A pairing request will then pop up on the phone. Check the boxes for 'Sync Favorites' and 'Contacts', then confirm.
The first time I connected the Bluetooth on my Honda XRV went smoothly. As an XRV owner for a year, here’s how I did it: First, start the engine, locate the central control screen, open the settings menu, and select the Bluetooth function, setting it to 'discoverable.' Then, take your phone, turn on Bluetooth settings, and search for new devices—you should see 'Honda XRV' or a similar name. Tap to connect, and the system will prompt for a pairing code, usually 0000 or 1234. Enter it, confirm, and you’re done in seconds. Once paired, it will connect automatically, allowing hands-free calls or music playback. I recommend doing this while parked for safety—don’t set it up while driving. If the connection is slow, restarting your phone’s Bluetooth usually helps. Bluetooth is super convenient, making long drives with music or navigation much more comfortable.
Connecting to the XRV Bluetooth is actually simple and practical, and I've gotten used to it in my daily routine. First, make sure the vehicle is started, then enter the audio system or touchscreen to select and enable Bluetooth settings. After turning on your phone's Bluetooth, refresh the device list and select the XRV name to pair, entering the default password 0000. Once successful, remember to save it in the settings so it automatically connects the next time you get in the car. A handy tip: place your phone closer inside the car to reduce interference, and ensure your phone's Bluetooth isn't in power-saving mode or burdened with too many background tasks consuming resources. Once the Bluetooth connection is stable, the sound quality is clear, allowing seamless handling of calls and music switching, reducing the risk of driving distractions. Regularly check the device list to clear old pairings and manually reconnect for smoother operation.
