I just brought my new car home and have all the manuals but cannot find how to use the audio panel to enter the code that the books says I need to start the pairing? My car has a touch panel, but does not have the jag phone installed, but the book says I can pair my phone (i have an iphone) I can't even get to the place to get started. How do I get the on screen panel to allow me to enter a code?
Thanks

 

Hey, jaggirltoo!

First, congrats!

Now, I wonder if your car has the Bluetooth module. I think the easiest way to tell is if you have a small mic on the headliner just to the left of the moonroof control. It will be a separate piece that is attached to the headliner. If you don't have a mic there, you may not have the Bluetooth capability.

Take a look and let us know.

 

what year is it? does it have the cellphone dock in the arm rest?

 

According to the bio, it's a 2007 X-Type...which is what I have.

 

Thanks for all your replies, after much frustration, I drove to the Jag Dealer and asked them if it has bluetooth capability and they got in the car and said NO. I was really upset, I stood right there and asked the salesguy if it had bluetooth capability and he said yes...so now they are going to see about putting a parrot in the car. I had a parrot in my 03 S type and it worked well so hopefully will do the same in this car. Thanks it is a new experience with this x type jag. Hope I like it

 

Bummer! Sorry about that.

I know the car is pre-wired for Bluetooth. Not sure how much it would cost to add the module, though.

Good luck!

 

That stinking module is insanely expensive, about a grand!

 

I have a 2002 X-Type 3.0; back then Bluetooth didn't exist but I do have the built-in microphones in the center overhead where the lights and moon roof controls are located. I replaced the stock audio system with an Alpine INA-W900, to which I added Bluetooth, XM radio, and Navagation modules. The Bluetooth module was at or around $200 and intergrated nicely with the existing microphones. I was surprised that the microphones were there as I did not have a phone connection in the center console.

mj - are yoiu sure? i looked at an 02 sport yesterday, it's got navi and i noticed a phone dock in the armrest - or does that mean it needs to be plugged into it?

cuz thats an oldschool type phone plug that does not fit my phone

 

The microphones are from the built in hands free cell feature. It's also why the stock radio has a dial pad on it. To me it's the first to go simply becasue it dates our cars.

 

Yes, the '02 did not have Bluetooth, although navigation was an option. It is however rare to see navagation on an 02. As for the phone dock, it is only compatable with a discontinued model Motorola cell phone that must be physically pluged in to the dock.
