    Connect 2 cell phones to Prius Bluetooth

    I want to be able to connect 2 cell phones (my wife and mine) to the
    Prius Bluetooth at the same time, so that any call comming in from
    either phone will connect. I can connect one of the phones at a time,
    but not both. The Prius asks if I want to delete the first one, when
    connecting the second phone.

    You can't do it. It's inherent in Bluetooth.

    The Prius can be paired with up to 4 Bluetooth cell phones. However,
    only one can be active at a time (using the microphone and and speaker
    system to carry on a conversation). You can choose which Bluetooth
    cell phone should connect with the Prius by going to the Bluetooth
    Phone Settings page, and Selecting from the scroll-down menu choices
    the Telephone Selection setting. (The Prius acts like a Bluetooth
    headset.) You shouldn't have to delete the 1st phone to connect the
    2nd one, as the Prius can store up to 4 phones.

    What do you think would happen if both your cell phone and your wife's
    cell phone each received a call at the same time? Or if the phones
    called each other? That is why only one phone can be connected at a
    given time.

    I realize only one phone can be used at a time. I do not understand
    how to pair 4 Bluetooth cell phones? Can you explain this process?

    I was asked to checked the owners manual again. The 2006 owners manual
    has a large section on Handsfree. I finally found the section you were
    refering to. In 2006 up to 6 cell phones can be registered. I was able
    to register both phones after a couple of tries.

    Switching between registered phones takes a few steps but can be done.

    For a 2004-2005 Prius, this is listed in the Navigation Owner's
    Manual. I'm guessing that the Bluetooth section was moved into the
    main Owner's Manual for 2006/2007, but I do not have a copy of one of
    these manuals to point out the section. In the 2004 Prius Navigation
    Owner's Manual, it's in the "Other Functions - Hands-Free system"
    section," specifically on pages 110-112. There's a section for "Enter
    the Bluetooth Phone" and "Select the Bluetooth Phone."

    I may have mis-spoke. You can have up to 4 Bluetooth phones
    registered with the car, but only one at a time may be paired. You
    select which phone (of those that are registered with the car) to pair
    at any given time.

    INFO > Telephone > Settings
    scroll down to...

    Bluetooth: use the "Entry" button for registering/pairing a new phone
    (enter the PASS-KEY)
    Bluetooth: use the "Settings" button to verify which phone is
    connected via the "Bluetooth Information" screen
    Select Telephone: use the "Select" button to choose which of the
    entered phones to connect via the "Select Telephone" screen
