Pairing with another Bluetooth ® device
When you pair your device with another device, you can, for example, connect your
device to a Bluetooth
® headset or a Bluetooth ® car kit and use these other devices to
share music.
Once you pair your device with another Bluetooth ® device, your device remembers this
pairing. When pairing your device with a Bluetooth ® device, you may need to enter a
passcode. Your device will automatically try the generic passcode 0000. If this does not
work, refer to the user guide for your Bluetooth
® device to get the device passcode. You
do not need to re-enter the passcode the next time you connect to a previously 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 device with several Bluetooth ® devices, but you can only connect to one
Bluetooth ® profile at the same time.
