Where is the Bluetooth located in the older CRV model?

Press any one of the three symbols: Bluetooth logo, BlueTooth, or BT to activate the car's Bluetooth. Below is a detailed introduction about car Bluetooth: 1. Overview: Car Bluetooth is an in-vehicle wireless hands-free system designed based on wireless Bluetooth technology. Its main function is to connect with a mobile phone via Bluetooth during normal driving for hands-free calls, aiming to free up hands and reduce the risk of traffic accidents. 2. Others: The Bluetooth technology in the car Bluetooth system is an extension of mobile phone Bluetooth technology, sharing the same transmission system. Currently, most car Bluetooth systems support functions such as conference calls and MP3 playback, with simple operation and the ability to connect multiple phones simultaneously.
I've driven quite a few older CR-V models, like those from around 2007. The Bluetooth location is usually on the radio panel of the center console, not a standalone button but accessed through the menu system. You'll need to first press the 'Audio' or 'Settings' button on the panel, then look for the 'Bluetooth' or 'Phone Connection' section among the options. Once you enter, just follow the prompts to pair your phone step by step. If you can't find it, try the control buttons on the left side of the steering wheel—some models have a phone icon that can activate Bluetooth when pressed. Remember to ensure the car key is powered on to access the full menu for pairing, and it's safer to do this while parked. If there's really no Bluetooth option, it might be because the model is too old and didn't come standard with it. Don't worry—just add an inexpensive AUX-to-Bluetooth adapter plugged into the cigarette lighter, and you can easily achieve wireless connectivity. Installation is simple and the effect is practical. Older car systems might be a bit sluggish, so it's recommended to try a few more times or check the owner's manual for detailed instructions.
