  • Bluetooth

    Hi guys.

    Has anyone had any problems with Bluetooth connecting?
    I've had my DS3 now for a month, it's brand new, completely in love with it, and for the first 3 weeks every time I got into the car it connected straight to my phone, however, the last week I've noticed when I get into the car it doesn't instantly connect and I have to go into my phone, switch off Bluetooth, then switch it back on to connect to the car. This is no problem and the Bluetooth works fine but it was nicer to not have to do anything. Lol.

    Anyone else had this problem and know a way around it?

    Thanks

    Have you tried to leave it and see if it connects at all? Mine syncs half way down the road.

    On via Tapa.

      Mine takes about 10secs I think to sync, so if you're WTF you'd be at McDs in that 10 secs

        You did remember to authorise the car to access the phonebook didn't you?

          Mine still won't connect (pair).

          Got an iPhone 5... obviously switch Bluetooth on the phone.

          Then got to Menu and Connect Mobile Phone.

          The car sees my phone as it says "XXXXX's iPhone"

          But my phone just won't find the car when I try to search for devices.

          Any ideas??

            Got my DS3 Sport+ today and Bluetooth worked fine

            1) Go to menu of Radio
            2) Search for Device
            3) Choose iPhone
            4) Set passcode on the radio
            5) Enter passcode on the phone

            Worked fine

              The car will be listed as BT_RADIO or CITROEN.

                This. Although I would add this step at the start:

                - On your iPhone: Settings > Bluetooth > Turn On.
                (If it is already on, accessing this menu should make the phone discoverable to the car).

                It works better if you start the process with the car, otherwise it doesn't always connect properly.

                    Nope, it's just a temporary code to enable you to pair the devices.

                      I had to turn off encryption on my blackberry to get it to work properly. With encryption on connection was intermittent with no phone book. All good with it off.
