    We need driving mode to start automatically when your phone connects to a Bluetooth device

    .

    Add one to get started. So you can connect this to the Bluetooth in your car. If your car has Bluetooth, then you will connect this and so it will know that it is activated. Click Add a Device.

    

    Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
13. 13
    Click on to turn the Bluetooth on

    .

    Now it is going to search for Bluetooth devices.

    ORB

    .

    Tap to pair. Make sure that this PIN matches the PIN that ORB displays. Not sure if this is going to connect because it is not necessarily setup for this function - the ORB function. Just to give you an example, this is what you will need to do in order to sync this with a Bluetooth in your car or in other areas. Or even if you are travelling or driving.

    

    Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help

    It is pairing it now

    .

    Use an alternate Bluetooth audio connection for Speech

    .

    Select the checkbox above only if your Bluetooth device has problems with speech recognition. We do not need that. We can also see that the ORB is not going to pair with it because it is not necessary.

    

    Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help

    What we have here is the options to sync this device with Bluetooth

    .

    As we do not have a car here, we cannot show you exactly how to do that but we can give you an idea of what you need to do for the steps that I have shown you. Then, when it comes to adding a Bluetooth device, you will need to sync this phone with the Bluetooth in the car. This concludes our tutorial on how to activate Driving mode in a Microsoft Lumia 535.
