How to play music via Bluetooth in GL8?
2 Answers
For the new Buick GL8, first enter the main interface of Bluetooth audio playback. There are two methods to access the Bluetooth audio menu: one is by toggling the four-way control button, and the other is by rotating the menu button. Detailed Bluetooth features are as follows: 1. Shuffle Play: Not all devices support shuffle play. If available, pressing the menu selection button can toggle this function on or off. 2. Single Loop/All Loop/Loop Off: The system offers three music playback loop modes to choose from, switchable via menu options. 3. Bluetooth Device Management: This allows management of devices paired with Bluetooth audio. When selecting Bluetooth audio, the audio player might become unavailable. Different devices have varying methods for initiating and playing audio; the correct audio source must be selected in the device for playback. When Bluetooth audio is selected as the source, the screen may pause. Use the play button on the Bluetooth device or the panel button to start playback.
I used to drive a GL8 and often had friends asking about playing music via Bluetooth, saying 'give it a try when you get off.' The simple process is: first, turn on the Bluetooth function on your phone and make sure it's discoverable. Then, operate the central control screen in the car, go to the settings menu, find the device connection option, add your phone, and enter the pairing code, such as 0000. After connecting, be sure to select Bluetooth input in the audio source, not USB or radio. Then open a music app on your phone, like Apple Music or NetEase Cloud Music, press the play button, and the sound will come out. If the volume is low, turn it up on both the phone and the car's knob. The first time I forgot to select the source, and no sound came out no matter what I did. Since then, I set it up before getting in the car to avoid distractions. Automatic reconnection is very convenient, and the sound quality is good enough for daily listening, but if you're after high fidelity, a USB drive is better. If it doesn't connect, try turning Bluetooth off and on again or restarting the car's system. Playing music via Bluetooth makes the journey much more comfortable without affecting driving safety.
