Bluetooth Features 

Chevy Bluetooth is one of the most popular Chevy features. Chevy drivers love the Chevrolet Bluetooth pairing music option, but you can do so many other great things with it too, like listening to podcasts stored on your phone over your vehicle’s sound system, calling your contacts, voice command texting, navigation, and more. The Bluetooth feature also allows you to connect to your vehicle’s LTE Wi-Fi Hotspot. A list of common compatible smartphones can be found here.  

Setting Up Chevy Bluetooth 

Wondering how to pair Bluetooth with your 2023 Chevy model? Simply follow these simple steps to connect your Chevy Bluetooth feature using your Chevy infotainment system’s touch screen: 

1. Turn on the vehicle and keep it in Park.
2.  Touch the Phone icon on your vehicle’s touchscreen. 
3.  Look for an option on the screen to add or connect a new phone. It may say “Add Phone,” “Pair Device,” “Connect Phone” or “+.”
4. Go to your phone’s Bluetooth settings, turn Bluetooth on and select your vehicle from the list of options. 
5. Confirm the code shown on the phone matches the code on the infotainment touchscreen. 
6. Touch Pair on the infotainment touchscreen. You may also have to accept the pairing on your device, as well.
7.  If prompted, agree (or disagree) to allow the infotainment system to access your phone’s contacts and messages.
   1. Note: If you disagree, your contacts and messages will not be downloaded. In this case, you will be able to make calls after pairing by saying a phone number but will not be able to use a contact’s name to make a call.
8.  When the pairing is complete, the infotainment screen will show your phone as available for making and receiving calls.
