I've been driving for several years and recently started using ETC. Turning on Bluetooth is actually quite simple. First, you need to locate the ETC device, which is usually attached to the front windshield and has a small button or card slot. Press and hold that button for a few seconds, and the device will flash its light indicating Bluetooth activation mode. Then, open your phone app like WeChat ETC or the official app, and search for the device to connect. Why turn on Bluetooth? Mainly for activating new cards or topping up conveniently without visiting service points. Remember to operate while parked to avoid distractions while driving. If the light doesn't flash, the button might be broken or the battery dead, so it's advisable to check the device regularly. Once connected, your phone can manage ETC bills in real time, saving you the hassle of queuing. In short, you'll get the hang of it after a few tries.
