BLUETOOTH PAIRING on a '05 X5

[ALX]

Hi, I just bought my 1st X5 today. It is a 2005 3.0d. As I have read it should be equipped with bluetooth. I don't have the phone cradle yet but I think I can still use it without it. I have tried everything I found on this forum about BT pairing and nothing works. I have pressed the R/T button on the steering wheel and nothing happens, I have also turned the key to OFF and then to the 1st or 2nd position and nothing happens either! can someone help me out? Is there another way to do this? Is there an easy way to know that my x5 is bluetooth ready as the salesman told me? The problem is that I live in south america where bluetooth technology is very new and few people are aware of it. By the way the salesman mentioned that the x5 had bluetooth I could tell he didn't even know what it was.

Thanks in advance.
