Connecting a Bluetooth headset or car kit

You can listen to music over an Bluetooth stereo headset, or have hands-free conversations using a compatible Bluetooth headset or car kit. It’s the same procedure to set up stereo audio and hands-free.

For you to listen to music with your headset or car kit, the headset or car kit must support the A2DP Bluetooth profile.

1.Press HOME > MENU, and then tap Settings > Wireless & networks > Bluetooth settings.

2.If Bluetooth is not switched on, tap the Bluetooth check box to switch it on.

3.Make sure that the headset is discoverable, so that your phone can find the headset. Refer to the instructions that came with the headset to find out how to set it in discoverable mode.

4.Tap Scan for devices. Your phone will start to scan for Bluetooth devices within range.

5.When you see the name of your headset displayed in the Bluetooth devices section, tap the name. Your phone then automatically tries to pair with the headset.

6.If automatic pairing fails, enter the passcode supplied with your headset.

The pairing and connection status is displayed below the hands-free headset or car kit name in the Bluetooth devices section. When the Bluetooth headset or car kit is connected to your

phone, the Bluetooth connected icon is displayed in the status bar. Depending on the type of headset or car kit you have connected, you can then start using the headset or car kit to listen to music and/or make and receive phone calls.

Reconnecting a headset or car kit

When you have paired a headset with your phone, you should be able to reconnect it automatically by turning on Bluetooth on your phone, and then turning on the headset. However, sometimes you will need to reconnect manually, for example if you have been using your headset with another Bluetooth device.

1.Press HOME > MENU, and then tap Settings > Wireless & networks > Bluetooth settings.

2.If Bluetooth is not switched on, tap the Bluetooth check box to switch it on.

3.Make sure that the headset is discoverable.

4.Tap the headset’s name in the Bluetooth devices section.

5.If prompted to enter a passcode, try 0000 or 1234, or consult the headset/car kit documentation to find the passcode.

If you still cannot reconnect to the headset or car kit, follow the instructions in "Unpairing from a Bluetooth device", and then follow the instructions under "Connecting a Bluetooth headset or car kit."
