just bought a 528i BMW 2000 yr,
with no manual, I am trying to find out how to
set the phone device. On the steering wheel, there is an icon botton showing phone access.
How do I program my cellular device to accessable through the bmw at this button?
thanks

That may not be possible, the TCU may not be installed and even if it is it is possibly corrupted and may need program and software updates. Please repost with the last seven of the VIN so I can tell what the equipment level is and so that I can look up the pairing procedure.
