Once you have confirmed compatibility, it’s time to locate the Bluetooth button in your Panda. The button is typically found on the car’s dashboard, near the audio controls or infotainment system. Look for the Bluetooth icon or a dedicated button labeled “Bluetooth.”
Step 3: Turn on Bluetooth
Now that you have located the Bluetooth button, it’s time to activate it. Follow these simple steps:

- Once the pairing is successful, you should see a confirmation message on both devices.
Step 5: Test the Connection
With the pairing complete, it’s time to test the Bluetooth connection:
