Option 2: Bluetooth Installation Instructions
Important! Roady BT is only compatible with radios and headunits which support the Bluetooth
audio streaming protocol. If the vehicle radio/headunit only supports the Bluetooth phone protocol,
Bluetooth cannot be used for the Roady BT audio connection.
There are two methods of pairing Roady BT with your radio/headunit:
A. Pairing from Roady BT to the radio/headunit. In this method you will place the radio/headunit
into pairing mode to passively wait for a pairing request from Roady BT. You will select your
radio/headunit from a list of Bluetooth devices that Roady BT has discovered, and complete the
pairing and connection to the radio/headunit.
B. Pairing from the vehicle radio/headunit to Roady BT. Using this method you will place
Roady BT into pairing mode to passively wait for a pairing request from the vehicle radio/
headunit. You will select Roady BT from a list of Bluetooth devices that the radio/headunit has
discovered, and complete the pairing and connection to Roady BT.
While many vehicle radio/headunits support method A, not all do, and you may need to use method
B.
Begin with “Method A: Bluetooth pairing from Roady BT to the radio/headunit” on page 22. If you
discover that Bluetooth pairing must be initiated from your radio/headunit skip ahead to “Method B:
Bluetooth pairing from the vehicle radio/headunit to Roady BT” on page 24.
