1. What is Bluetooth Wireless Technology?
Bluetooth Wireless Technology is a short-range communications technology using
encryption for high security data/voice transmission.
2. Is it safe to use Bluetooth devices, I have heard they can allow unauthorized
connections?
For Bluetooth security reasons, once you have set up your Bluetooth devices we
recommend turning OFF the visibility option in the Bluetooth Menu of your phone so that
other Bluetooth users cannot see the your phone. (This only applies to a few mainly older
Bluetooth enabled phones as most new phones have better security).
3. Can somebody else take control of my Z9 if they are in range?
No, the Z9 can only connect to previously paired devices that have been authenticated. The
Pairing procedure creates an encrypted key known only to the two devices paired.
4. What is the difference between Handsfree and Headset Bluetooth Profiles?
Handsfree Profile allows for extra features to be used with a mobile phone. Voice Dial,
redial, call transfer are some that are included in Handsfree but not Headset. Handsfree
also allows for a slightly better call quality.
5. How do I know if my devices are connected?
When Bluetooth is turned ON, on your phone you will see a Bluetooth symbol appear on
your main screen that changes slightly (colours invert or arrows appear) when connected to
the Z9. Some phones show a Headset or Car symbol to notify you that the devices are
connected.
6. Can I connect more than one device to my Z9 at the same time?
No, the Z9 will only allow one device to be connected at a time.
