6.3  Using Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology that allows Bluetooth devices to exchange information over a distance of about eight meters without requiring a physical connection. The phone supports the following Bluetooth profiles: Headset, Handsfree, A2DP, and AVRCP.

Bluetooth on your phone operates in three different modes:

•On. Bluetooth is turned on. Your phone can detect other Bluetooth-enabled devices, but not vice versa.

•Discoverable. Bluetooth is turned on, and all other Bluetooth-enabled devices can detect your phone.

•Off. Bluetooth is turned off. In this mode, you can neither send nor receive information using Bluetooth.

Notes • By default, Bluetooth is turned off. If you turn it on, and then turn off your phone, Bluetooth also turns off. When you turn on your phone again, Bluetooth automatically turns on.

•Turn off Bluetooth when not in use to conserve battery power, or in places where using a wireless device is prohibited, such as on board an aircraft and in hospitals.
