I recently paired a Blue Tooth phone without issue.
In the original system setup I indicated to use a 4 digit security code. I then read in the owners manual that the security can be turned on/off by using the voice command
"Security" when pressing the talk button for the HFL. The system in my RL does not recognize the word security. The only way I can change using the security code is to go thru the entire system setup. Not a big deal.

Any one else try the security on/off procedure? Does it work for you?

 

Moved to bluetooth subforum.

I didn't even know there was a security feature, so I can't really help. Sorry!

 

I don't think this item should have been moved. The problem is not only Blue Tooth related.

Yeah, actually, it probably is. Bluetooth devices pair using a security code and will use that code to ensure that they only work with paired devices. The only thing that would change if a 'security' was disabled with a bluetooth link would be that other devices would be able to pair without a security code.

This can be useful for, say, a BT printer or an open bluetooth network link... but since this is usually wholly irrelevant with a hands-free link (i.e., they really have to be paired to be used) and there's no other info transmitted over the BT link in the car (except if you can get your AcuraLink to work through your BT phone, and even then it's not personal information... and most people's don't work anyway...) besides the voice information when you talk... security on your BT connection isn't going to matter.

Unless for some reason you want to disable using a code when you link your HFL...? Can't see why you'd want to do this....
