first time one pair a bluetooth device with a device the bluetooth device needs to be put into pairing / discovery mode

and not have an active connection with another device at the time of pairing


how one goes about putting your bluetooth devices into pairing mode varies from device to device and should be in the documentation or on the website of the manufacturer

or just google "<device name> pairing mode" to find a guide
