Dear Robert,
I recently upgraded to a 2018 Nissan Maxima and I'm getting to grips with all of its features. Could you walk me through the process of pairing my phone with it via Bluetooth?
Thanks,
Lucy
Hi, Lucy!
Congratulations on upgrading to the 2018 Nissan Maxima, it’s a great vehicle. Pairing your phone to this car is a quick and painless process.
First, you need to hit the button on your steering wheel with a picture of someone talking. After this, you will hear audible instructions come through your car’s speakers.
Push the same button again to skip these directions and then say “add phone†out loud. After this, you’ll see some on-screen instructions which will let you know your vehicle has recognized your command.
Now switch your phone's Bluetooth on and start searching for nearby devices; you should see ‘MY MAXIMA’ appear under this section: select it.
Finally, hit ‘pair’ on your phone and press ‘yes’ on your vehicle's screen. Then wait for your contacts etc. to upload to your car’s computer, and that’s really all there is to it.
Thanks for the question, Lucy! Contact Kirkland Nissan, Washington again if you need anything else.
