Using your Hyundai’s Bluetooth system is the safe solution, but do you know all the ways to use it?

Using hands-free calls isn’t just convenient—it’s a safety necessity. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) states that hands-free systems reduce the risk of distracted driving incidents by up to 40% compared to holding a phone. Hyundai’s Bluetooth system is designed to keep your focus on the road, with multiple ways to initiate calls without touching your device. The video covers 5 primary methods, each tailored to different needs.

Let’s dive into each method with clear, actionable steps:

1. Keypad Dialing

If you know the exact number:

  • Tap the keypad icon on your infotainment screen.
  • Enter the number using the touchscreen.
  • Press the “Call” button to start the call.
    Pro tip: Keep your screen clean for quick, accurate taps—smudges can slow you down.

2. Redial the Last Number

For quick calls to recent contacts:

  • Hold down the “Call” button on the screen OR the phone button on your steering wheel.
  • The system will automatically redial the last number you called.
    Key note: This works even if your phone is in your pocket or bag.

3. Call From Contacts List

To reach a saved contact:

  • Tap the “Contacts” tab on the screen.
  • Scroll or search to find the contact.
  • Select the contact to start dialing.
    Multiple numbers: Tap the info button next to the contact to see numbers by type (home, work, mobile). Choose the one you want.

4. Call From Call History

To revisit recent calls:

  • Tap the “Call History” tab.
  • Your recent calls (received, dialed, missed) will appear.
  • Select the number you want to call.
    Sorting tip: Filter by received, dialed, or missed calls to find numbers faster.

The video doesn’t mention voice commands, but many newer Hyundai models support this feature. Simply say “Hey Hyundai” followed by “Call [Contact Name]” to initiate a call without touching the screen. This is the safest method yet, as it keeps your hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.

Another point: Always pair your phone correctly before driving. If pairing fails, check your phone’s Bluetooth settings or refer to your owner’s manual for troubleshooting.
