Bluetooth™ wireless technology
Use the Bluetooth™ function to send files to other Bluetooth™ compatible devices,
or to connect to handsfree accessories. Turn on the Bluetooth™ function in your
phone and create wireless connections to other Bluetooth™ compatible devices such
as computers, handsfree accessories, and phones. Bluetooth™ connections work
better within a 10 meter (33 foot) range, with no solid objects in between. In some
cases you have to manually pair your phone with other Bluetooth™ devices.
Remember to set your phone to "discoverable" if you want other Bluetooth™ devices
to detect it.
Interoperability and compatibility among Bluetooth™ devices can vary.

Pairing with another Bluetooth™ device
When you pair your phone with another device, you can, for example, connect your
phone to a Bluetooth™ handsfree or a Bluetooth™ car kit and use these devices to
make and receive calls.
Once you have paired your phone with a Bluetooth™ device the phone will remember
this pairing. When pairing the phone with a Bluetooth™ device, you may need to
enter a passcode. Your phone will automatically try the generic passcode 0000. If this
does not work, refer to your Bluetooth™ device documentation for the device
passcode. You do not need to re-enter the passcode the next time you connect to a
paired Bluetooth™ device.
Some Bluetooth™ devices, for example, most Bluetooth™ headsets, require you to
both pair and connect with the other device.
You can pair your phone with several Bluetooth™ devices, but you can only connect
to one Bluetooth™ profile at the same time.
