About Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology capable of exchanging information over a distance of about 30 feet without requiring a physical connection.

Unlike infrared, you don't need to line up the devices to beam information with Bluetooth. If the devices are within a range of one another, you can exchange information between them, even if they are located in different rooms.

The following Bluetooth options are available:

Turn Bluetooth On/Off

▶Make a selection and press the Select soft key or the key.

My devices

This option allows you to search for new Bluetooth devices.

My visibility

Allowing your phone to promote its visibility can pose a security risk and incite unauthorized connection. This feature should be paired with a Bluetooth security option.

▶Highlight the option (On/Off) and Select (Left) soft key or the key.

My phone name

When your phone’s Bluetooth visibility is turned On, it identifies itself using the name entered into this text field. This name can be altered by selecting the pre-existing text and selecting a new text string in its place. This feature should be paired with a Bluetooth security option.
