Connecting to a Bluetooth hands-free
device
Once you set up a partnership with a
Bluetooth headset or car kit, you can
communicate with that device whenever it
is turned on and within range. Bluetooth
range is up to 30 feet/10 meters in
optimum environmental conditions.
Performance and range may be reduced by
physical obstacles, radio interference from
nearby electronic equipment, and other
factors.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN Prepare your
headset or car kit to accept a connection
from another Bluetooth device. See the
documentation that came with your
hands-free device for instructions.
1 Press Applications and select
Bluetooth or tap the Bluetooth
icon in the title bar.
2 Select Bluetooth On.
3 (Optional) Enter a device name that
identifies your smartphone when it is
discovered by other Bluetooth devices.
NOTE Use the same device name for all
your Bluetooth connections. If you change
the device name, you need to recreate any
partnerships you already created.
4 Select Setup Devices.
KEY TERM Partnership Two devices—for
example, your smartphone and a hands-free
device—that can connect because each
device finds the same passkey on the other
device. Once you form a partnership with a
device, you don’t need to enter a passkey to
connect with that device again. Partnership is
also known as paired relationship, pairing,
trusted device, and trusted pair.
TIP If you hear a headset buzz or experience
poor microphone performance, your headset
may be incompatible with your smartphone.
