It should work, try to initiate the pairing from the Navman rather than the Okta Touch.

If you want to use the Navman as the service provider (headset or handsfree) then try pairing from your Okta Touch instead.

In any casde (pairing from one or another) make sure both devices are in discoverable (visible) mode. Also while the Okta needs only to be in visible mode to be found by other devices for pairing, the Navman may need to be put in discoverable mode which would only last for a few seconds each time.
