Bluetooth
You can connect wirelessly to other compatible devices, such as phones,
computers, headsets, and car kits. You can also send your photos to
compatible phones or to your computer.
Since devices with Bluetooth wireless technology communicate using
radio waves, they do not need to be in direct line-of-sight. Bluetooth
devices must, however, be within 10 meters (33 feet) of each other,
although the connection may be subject to interference from
obstructions such as walls or from other electronic devices.
Paired devices can connect to your phone when Bluetooth is turned on.
Other devices can detect your phone only if the Bluetooth settings view
is open.
Do not pair with or accept connection requests from an unknown
device. This helps to protect your phone from harmful content.
Connect to a wireless headset
With a wireless headset (sold separately), you can speak on the phone
hands-free – you can continue what you’re doing, such as working at
your computer, during a call.
1. From the Start screen, swipe left, and tap
Settings > Bluetooth.
2. Turn Status On .
3. Make sure the headset is on.
You may need to start the pairing process from the headset. For details,
see your headset user guide.
4. To pair your phone and the headset, tap the headset in the list.
5. You may need to type in a passcode. For details, see your headset
user guide.
Connect to your friend’s phone with Bluetooth
Use Bluetooth to wirelessly connect to your friend’s phone, to share
photos and much more.
1. From the Start screen, swipe left, and tap
Settings > Bluetooth.
2. Make sure Bluetooth is turned on in both phones.
3. Make sure both phones are visible to other phones. You need to be
in the Bluetooth settings view for your phone to be visible to other
phones.
4. You can see the Bluetooth phones within range. Tap the phone you
want to connect to.
5. If the other phone needs a passcode, type in or accept the
passcode.
The passcode is only used when you connect to something for the first
time.
