This pairing operation is only required once for each Bluetooth device.
EXPAND 5.3 Bluetooth Stereo Device Pairing If the Bluetooth stereo device is integrated with a mobile phone such as a smartphone, you don’t need to pair the Sena Expand with it separately. When the Sena Expand is paired with the mobile phone, it is also paired as a stereo music device. If you have a stand alone Bluetooth stereo device, follow the pairing procedure separately. The procedure is the same as the procedure given in “4.1 Mobile Phone Pairing”. Note: 1.

The Bluetooth audio device must be paired with the Sena Expand by following the “Bluetooth Stereo Device Pairing” procedures described in chapter 5.3.
