Bluetooth™ technology  
Bluetooth™ technology enables wireless communication over  
short distances. Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can  
exchange information over a distance of about eight meters  
without requiring a physical connection.  
Bluetooth™ modes  
Bluetooth™ functionality in your phone operates in three  
different modes:  
On – Bluetooth functionality is turned on. Your phone can  
detect other Bluetooth-enabled devices, but they cannot  
detect your phone.  
Off – Bluetooth functionality is turned off. You can neither  
send nor receive information over a Bluetooth link. Turn off  
Bluetooth functionality when not in use to conserve battery  
power, or in places where using a wireless device is  
prohibited, such as on board an aircraft or in hospitals.  
Visible – Bluetooth functionality is turned on, and other  
Bluetooth-enabled devices can detect your phone.  
By default, Bluetooth functionality is turned off. To have it turned  
on by default, turn it on, then immediately turn off your phone.  
When you next time turn on your phone, Bluetooth functionality  
is on.  
To turn on Bluetooth™ functionality and make your phone  
visible  
1
Tap  
> Settings > Connections tab > Bluetooth™ >  
Mode tab.

Mark the Turn on Bluetooth and Make this device visible to  
other devices check boxes.  
Tap ok.  
Bluetooth™ partnership  
A Bluetooth™ partnership is a relationship you create between  
your phone and another Bluetooth-enabled device in order to  
exchange information in a secure manner.  
To create a Bluetooth™ partnership  
1
Tap  
> Settings > Connections tab > Bluetooth™.  
2
On the Devices tab, tap Add new device. Your phone will  
then search for other Bluetooth devices and display them in  
the box.

Tap the desired device name.  
Tap Next.  
Specify a passcode to establish a secure connection. The  
passcode can be 1 to 16 characters.  
Tap Next.  
Wait for the paired device to accept the partnership. The  
receiving party needs to enter the same passcode that you  
specified.

The name of the paired device is displayed. You may edit and  
enter a new name for it.  
Mark the check boxes for the services you want to use from  
the paired device.  
10 Tap Finish.  
Creating a Bluetooth partnership between two devices is a one-  
time process. Once a partnership is created, the devices will  
recognize each other automatically when they are close enough  
and have the Bluetooth function on. There is thus no need to enter  
the passcode again.  
To accept a Bluetooth™ partnership

device requesting the partnership) to establish a secure  
connection. The passcode must be between 1 to 16  
characters.

partnership on the Devices tab of the Bluetooth settings screen,  
then tap Delete.  
Connecting a Bluetooth™ handsfree or  
stereo headset  
For handsfree phone conversation, you can use a Bluetooth™  
handsfree headset such as a car kit with your phone. Your phone  
also supports A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) which  
means you can use a Bluetooth stereo headset for handsfree  
phone conversations and for listening to stereo music.

The default folder on your computer where beamed items are  
stored may be C:\Documents and Settings\your_username\My  
Documents in Windows XP or C:\Users\your_username\My
