Bluetooth Secure Mode

When the Bluetooth Visibility is turned on, your phone is
wirelessly transmitting its phone name and status to every device
within its range. This transmission can pose a security risk and
incite unauthorized connection to your phone. It is recommended
that you remain hidden unless necessary.

Remote SIM Mode

This mode allows you to turn On or Off Remote SIM Mode.
Remote SIM mode, when set to On, allows the Bluetooth phone
car kit to access the contact information stored on the SIM card.

Note: There is a risk that another Bluetooth device (user) can access and

modify your SIM card features and data.
