How do I connect Bluetooth to a 2017 Ford Transit?

I’m using my mom’s 2017 Ford Transit van for the weekend for a catering job and I want to stream music from my phone while I drive. How can I connect the car’s Bluetooth to my phone?

We get it, streaming music from your phone makes all the difference in the car. You can connect Bluetooth in a 2017
Ford Transit
by enabling Bluetooth on your phone and following a few simple steps.
Once Bluetooth is discoverable on your mobile phone, press the PHONE button on the infotainment touchscreen, then select Bluetooth devices. The infotainment screen will prompt you to connect your phone to the Transist’s multimedia system.
When you open the Bluetooth settings menu on your phone, look for your Ford Transit to appear on the list of Bluetooth pairing options (it may appear as the pairing option SYNC) and tap it. After that, your phone and the Transit will wirelessly pair.
In addition to being able to play your favorite tunes or podcast through your vehicle’s speakers, Bluetooth connectivity can prevent
distracted driving
which, besides being dangerous, can get you an expensive ticket!
