Connect a Bluetooth hands-free or stereo headset

For hands-free phone conversations, you can use a Bluetooth hands-free headset such as a car kit with your device.

Your device also supports A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) which is for stereo audio over Bluetooth. This means that you can use a Bluetooth stereo headset with your device for hands-free phone conversations as well as for listening to stereo music. Make sure that your stereo headset also supports A2DP.

Just like when connecting to any Bluetooth device, you also need to enter a passcode when connecting to a Bluetooth hands-free or stereo headset. The passcode is fixed and cannot be changed on a Bluetooth headset. Before you connect it to your device, check for the proper passcode in the manufacturer’s documentation.

Beam information using Bluetooth

You can beam information, such as contacts, calendar items, and tasks, as well as files from your device to your computer or to another Bluetooth-enabled device.

Notes • If your computer does not have built-in Bluetooth capability, you need to connect and use a Bluetooth adapter or dongle on your computer.
