You need the phone to discover the car, not the other way around. Remember that the car is just the same as a $20 bluetooth headset, so the phone is the master device....which seems counterintuitive because the car is big and expensive. I have a 2007 so I don't know how to put the car into its "discoverable" mode...that will be in the manual. But you need to put the car into discoverable mode and then have the phone discover the car.

Pairing info for Bluetooth starts on page 7-18 of your 2011 owners manual.

This should work -

Press and hold the talk button on the steering wheel for two seconds.

Say Blutooth

Say Pair

The voice will give you instructions and give you a four digit code on the DIC display.

Start the pairing process on your phone and enter the number on the DIC display when your phone locates the vehicle.

The voice will ask you for a name for the device.

This is a synopsis from page 7-19 of the manual.

FWIW, the instructions from Verizon and the instructions from GM, were both imcomplete/incorrect. But by printing out both sets and comparing them, I was able to figure it out. Unfortunately, don't have them with me on vacation.

There are three classes of bluetooth, each with varying ranges. The highest powered bluetooth class has a range of up to 100 meters.

Right after I paired up my blackberry with my 2011, I was in the car when a call came in. I was looking around for my blackberry but it wasn't with me. After hanging up the call, I found my phone in the kitchen, about 40 or so feet away, with a few walls, water heater, and furnace in between.

So, when you pair and see several bluetooth devices, it could be something from one of your neighbors, or another bluetooth-capable device in your house.
