2022 Lucid Air Phone and Smart Devices
Bluetooth® Wireless Technology
When in operating range, you can pair a Bluetooth-capable phone with your vehicle for hands-free use. Bluetooth usually supports a wireless connection of approximately 30 feet (9 m), although the range can vary based on atmospheric conditions and the device used.
To use your phone with the vehicle, you must pair it first. See Pairing a Bluetooth® Device.
Two devices can be connected simultaneously. For example, If you own a personal phone and wish to stream music while taking calls from your work phone, you can connect the first device for phone features, and second device for media, or the same device can be connected for both phone and media. Only one device can be connected for each feature.
NOTE: Other Bluetooth -capable devices can also be paired to your vehicle for use, such as an iPad or Android tablet.
Pairing a Bluetooth Device
Pairing a phone to your vehicle enables you to place and receive hands-free calls, and to access your phone’s contacts, messages, and recent call list. It also allows you to play media from various media apps from your device. Once a phone is paired to the vehicle, it will automatically connect whenever it is in range.
To pair a device, have it with you in the vehicle and ensure it has Bluetooth® enabled and
discoverable, then follow these steps:
- On the Pilot Panel, select> Connectivity> Bluetooth.
