Settings

Select Menu > Settings and Connectivity > Bluetooth.
When you open the application for the first time, you are asked to define a name

for your device. You can change the name later.
Select from the following:
Bluetooth — Turn Bluetooth connectivity on or off.

My phone's visibility — To allow your device to be found by other devices with

Bluetooth wireless technology, select Shown to all. To set a time period after

which the visibility is set from shown to hidden, select Set visibility period. To

hide your device from other devices, select Hidden.

My phone's name — Edit the name shown to other devices with Bluetooth

wireless technology.

Remote SIM mode — Enable or disable another device, such as a compatible

car kit accessory, to use the SIM card in your device to connect to the network.

Security tips

Select Menu > Settings and Connectivity > Bluetooth.
When you are not using Bluetooth connectivity, to control who can find your device

and connect to it, select Bluetooth > Off or My phone's visibility > Hidden.

Deactivating Bluetooth connectivity does not affect other functions of the device.
Do not pair with or accept connection requests from an unknown device. This helps

to protect your device from harmful content. Operating the device in hidden mode

is a safer way to avoid malicious software.

Send data using Bluetooth connectivity

Several Bluetooth connections can be active at a time. For example, if you are

connected to a compatible headset, you can also transfer files to another compatible

device at the same time.
