How do I know if my car radio is Bluetooth enabled?

[Deleted User]

My car radio/CD has a button with a picture of a phone on it.

When I press it, the radio/CD that is playing, is muted.

There's also, what appears to be a microphone, at the top of the windscreen.

Does this mean my car radio/CD player is Bluetooth enabled?

Do any buttons, or on the fascia of the unit anywhere, or on the display do you see any sign of the Bluetooth symbol?

I'll have another look in the morning, but I don't recall any.

Only real way to tell is to root through the menu's Many cars stereos have a mute button that can be trigged by pressing it or through an external phone kit doing it electronically, it may be theres an external input for a phone but not Bluetooth.

A mic space isn't a sign in itself, its probably cheaper to fit the same moulding into every car (and there may even be the mic behind it) than to re-fit it by the dealer.

What car and stereo is it?

It's not a mic space. There's a microphone.

It's an 07 plate Focus Zetec, TDCI, [Euro 4] [Climate Pack].

The radio/CD is a Ford 6000 CD.

Watch and learn here.

So, if I can find BT ON/OFF in the menu, then it's Bluetooth enabled?

I'm just going to check. Back in 10 mins.

EDIT: No BT ON/OFF.

Oh well.
