Built-in Bluetooth via your Kenwood System


Built-in Bluetooth enables hands-free phone operation so you keep your hands on he steering wheel where they belong

 

Why purchase separate hands-free equipment which normally plays back callers on a tiny in-built speaker, when you can integrate the phone system completely into your vehicles audio system.

Your phonebook list is displayed for selection and previous call logs can also be used. Incoming caller number or name is also displayed before you allow connection or set the unit to automatically connect after a few rings.

 

Bluetooth Auto Paring (iPhone 4/4S/5)


Connect your iPhone to a 2013 Bluetooth built-in receiver via the iPod/iPhone USB connector using your Apple white USB lead or Kenwood iPod lead and the unit will automatically detect and pair your iPhone. *Not available on the KDC-BT33U

 

Voice Control Using Siri (iPhone 4S/5)


When you have connected your iPhone to a 2013 Bluetooth built-in receiver, you can activate the Siri function and speak through the wired microphone by simply pressing the Voice Key. *Not available on the KDC-BT33U

 

When an *SMS (text message) is received the senders name and message conveniently appears. In addition, we have integrated capability to play music files stored in *A2DP-compatible devices to bring a wireless world of seamless entertainment into your car.

Our 2013 CD-Receivers have the added benefit of a second phone that can also be connected for call/send and receive functions only.

* “SMS” and “Music Streaming” is only available if your mobile phones has this capability and if the Kenwood system has “Music Streaming”. Check the charts below to see if they have "Music Streaming" playback.
