Pandora Question - Again

I suspect the radio in the EX does not have the Pandora option. When I press the Source button, there is no choice for Pandora, despite what the manual says. Is that just with the EX-L radio?

Even if I could select Pandora, how would the car radio receive the signal? Through a smartphone?

I started Pandora on my Android and then selected Bluetooth, and I could play Pandora through the Fit radio, so I can get it to work.

Another question - will I be adding data usage the whole time I'm listening? That could add up fast.

Yes the EX model does support Pandora and it is a selection on the Audio menu - but it does require syncing with your smartphone and it will use your data plan on that phone... The benefit is that you can control Pandora through the radio controls without having to access your smartphone...

To Find Pandora from the Home screen select Audio, Menu, Change Source, then Pandora is one of the options. Just have Pandora playing on your phone or tablet with Bluetooth turned on and enjoy the music! Sorry I can't figure out how to load more than one pic.

post a pic of your source menu. if you are missing the "P", then they f'd up the programming of your radio. i am local, and could show you my car if you wanted.

*edit* just ran outside and snapped a pic of my EX:

How did younger all the choices to display at the same time? When I push Source, one item at a time appears.

Silver, I think you are hitting the source button on the steering wheel.

On the radio itself, in any radio screen, if you hit the "menu" button, and then Change Source, you should get the screen like Rodney shows in his picture.

On tommie's picture above, see where it says "source" in the top left under "Pandora" and above the Pandora P logo? Click that to see all the sources at once.

Yes, you have to actually select the source from the display. It won't appear when you use the steering wheel controls. Press "Source" either on the audio screen or through the sub menu, then you should see it. For my phone it always says it's looking for a connection, even if I was playing audio via the bluetooth source prior, but after a few moments it connects and the audio information will display as well.
