To use any of the phone features for SYNC®—such as making a call or using SYNC Services—you must first connect, or "pair," your Bluetooth®-enabled phone. Some smartphones use a four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN) and cannot accept the six-digit PIN provided by SYNC. Reverse pairing allows you to pair a phone requiring a four-digit PIN.27,48,129
