Bluetooth™ technology
Bluetooth™ technology enables wireless communication over
short distances. Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can
exchange information over a distance of about eight meters
without requiring a physical connection.
Bluetooth™ modes
Bluetooth™ functionality in your phone operates in three
different modes:
•
On – Bluetooth functionality is turned on. Your phone can
detect other Bluetooth-enabled devices, but they cannot
detect your phone.
Off – Bluetooth functionality is turned off. You can neither
send nor receive information over a Bluetooth link. Turn off
Bluetooth functionality when not in use to conserve battery
power, or in places where using a wireless device is
prohibited, such as on board an aircraft or in hospitals.
Visible – Bluetooth functionality is turned on, and other
Bluetooth-enabled devices can detect your phone.
•
•
By default, Bluetooth functionality is turned off. To have it turned
on by default, turn it on, then immediately turn off your phone.
When you next time turn on your phone, Bluetooth functionality
is on.
To turn on Bluetooth™ functionality and make your phone
visible
1
Tap
> Settings > Connections tab > Bluetooth™ >
Mode tab.

Mark the Turn on Bluetooth and Make this device visible to
other devices check boxes.

Bluetooth™ partnership
A Bluetooth™ partnership is a relationship you create between
your phone and another Bluetooth-enabled device in order to
exchange information in a secure manner.
To create a Bluetooth™ partnership
1
Tap
> Settings > Connections tab > Bluetooth™.

On the Devices tab, tap Add new device. Your phone will
then search for other Bluetooth devices and display them in
the box.

Tap the desired device name.
Tap Next.
Specify a passcode to establish a secure connection. The
passcode can be 1 to 16 characters.
Tap Next.

receiving party needs to enter the same passcode that you
specified.

The name of the paired device is displayed. You may edit and
enter a new name for it.
Mark the check boxes for the services you want to use from
the paired device.
10 Tap Finish.
Creating a Bluetooth partnership between two devices is a one-
time process. Once a partnership is created, the devices will
recognize each other automatically when they are close enough
and have the Bluetooth function on. There is thus no need to enter
the passcode again.
To accept a Bluetooth™ partnership

Ensure that Bluetooth™ functionality is turned on and that
your phone is in visible mode.

partnership on the Devices tab of the Bluetooth settings screen,
then tap Delete.
Connecting a Bluetooth™ handsfree or

For handsfree phone conversation, you can use a Bluetooth™
handsfree headset such as a car kit with your phone. Your phone
also supports A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) which

phone conversations and for listening to stereo music.

The default folder on your computer where beamed items are
stored may be C:\Documents and Settings\your_username\My
Documents in Windows XP or C:\Users\your_username\My
Documents in Windows Vista.
