- Route the remaining cable along the edge of the roof liner and towards the back of the radio, hiding the cable from sight.
INITIAL PAIRING
- Turn on the vehicle and wait for the “Ready” then “Searching Phones”.
- From your mobile phone, choose and connect to the “Beeline” device using the password “0000”.

Note: If pairing is unsuccessful after several attempts power off then power back on to re-attempt, if unsuccessful please contact our tech support line.
AUTO RE-CONNECT
The BEELINE module will automatically re-connect the a previously paired phone when the ignition is turned on.

it was paired with. If no mobile phone is found, it will revert to the
pairing process.

While connected to the Bluetooth interface the steering wheel controls will only adjust the volume on the BT’s built in amplifier. The volume knob on the factory radio will remain the master volume control after you set interface’s gain to match the volume output level of the other sources.

When connected to the Beeline interface, the OnStar feature will only work when using the OnStar button on the rear view mirror.
To use the steering wheel OnStar button you must wait for the interface to enter standby mode (no activity on the mobile phone).

Note: If an incoming call is answered from the mobile phone’s keypad, the call will direct itself to the headset on the mobile phone. To re-direct the phone call to the “BEELINE”, it must be done directly from the mobile phone.
Note: When transferring a phone call to the mobile phone for privacy, the user must re-connect the BEELINE and the mobile phone by selecting the module from the device menu on the phone.
