Bluetooth® wireless technology

Use the Bluetooth® function to send files to other Bluetooth® compatible devices, or to connect to handsfree accessories. Turn on the Bluetooth® function in your device and create wireless connections to other Bluetooth® compatible devices such as

computers, handsfree accessories, and phones. Bluetooth® connections work better within 10 metres (33 feet), with no solid objects in between. In some cases you have

to manually pair your device with other Bluetooth® devices.

Interoperability and compatibility among Bluetooth® devices can vary.
