Deactivating the Bluetooth function does not affect other

functions in your 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

You can have several Bluetooth connections active at a time.

For example, if you are connected to a compatible headset,

you can also transfer files to another compatible device.
1 Open the application where the item you want to send is

stored.

2 Go to an item, and select

>

Bluetooth

.

Devices with Bluetooth wireless technology that are

within range are displayed. Device icons are as follows:

other device

To interrupt the search, select

Cancel

.

3 Select the device with which you want to connect.

4 If the other device requires pairing before data can be

transmitted, a tone sounds, and you are asked to enter a

passcode. The same passcode must be entered in both

devices.

When the connection is established,

Sending data

is

displayed.

Tip: When searching for devices, some devices may show

only the unique address (device address). To find the unique

address of your device, in the dialer, enter *#2820#.

Pair devices

You can pair your device with a compatible device to make

subsequent Bluetooth connections between the devices

quicker. Before pairing, create your own passcode (1 to 16

digits), and agree with the owner of the other device to use

the same code. Devices that do not have a user interface have

a factory-set passcode. The passcode is used only once.
