Making Wireless Bluetooth Connections

	If your computer includes Bluetooth wireless capabilities, you can use it to make short-
	range radio connections to a wireless personal area network (PAN) and access other
	Bluetooth-compatible devices, such as other computers, cell phones, and printers.
	Since the Bluetooth function connects your computer by radio rather than through cables,
	you can move around and remain connected, and you can detect new Bluetooth devices
	automatically when they enter your area.
	To turn Bluetooth communication on and off
Important	Wireless communication may be restricted in some situations or environments, such as
	when traveling in an airplane. If in doubt, be sure to ask for authorization before turning
	on your computer’s wireless networking.
	In Italy, Singapore, and possibly other countries, you may be required to purchase a
	license from the responsible authority before using the wireless function.
	Turning on Bluetooth communication
	The wireless indicator light on the front of the computer turns on when Bluetooth or
	802.11 communication is turned on, but it doesn’t show whether Bluetooth, 802.11, or
	both functions are active. You must use the Wireless Configuration software to control
	the individual wireless functions.
	1. If your computer isn’t on, turn it on.
	2. If you normally press the wireless on-off button on the front of the computer to turn
	Bluetooth communication on and off, press the button so the indicator light turns on.
	This restores your previous wireless configuration.
	–or–
	Click Start, All Programs, Utilities, Wireless Configuration, then click the Bluetooth
	button to turn on Bluetooth communication.
	–or–
	If the Wireless Configuration icon is present in the taskbar, double-click the icon,
	then click the Bluetooth button to turn on Bluetooth communication.
