BMV 702 setting bluetooth dongle pin

Using 702, latest firmware on bluetooth dongle and latest Connect on Android. Am trying to change default Bluetooth pin (000000), but instructions (pub. 2/2019) do not match what I see on the app screen. I can get to Product Info from the Settings screen, but on that page there is no place to change default PIN. What is the current method for doing this... thanks, Bob

I don’t have a precise answer as I’m not personally familiar with your setup but maybe the troubleshooting guide will help:

I've scanned all the documents I can find, including the one you linked. All other functions and screens are working correctly, I just don't see the screen/icon to change the dongle PIN from default.

Turns out to be an application design issue. I needed to scroll the screen down to reveal the additional bluetooth options, including changing the PIN. Unfortunately many android apps do not show scroll bars so users can't see if there's more info.
