2.When prompted to turn on Bluetooth, tap Yes.

. Tap the Settings tab ( ), and then tap Not Discoverable.

. Tap the drop-down menu and then select Always Visible.

Note If you select Visible for 60 seconds, Bluetooth visibility will turn off automatically when the time elapses and your phone has not yet connected to another Bluetooth device.

. Tap Done. The icon then appears in the title bar to indicate that your phone is in visible mode.

Tip To easily switch Bluetooth off or back on, tap Wireless controls on the Home Screen’s Settings tab to open the Comm Manager and then tap Bluetooth’s Off/On switch.

Your phone remembers whether visible mode was previously enabled or disabled. If you did not disable visible mode, switching Bluetooth on in the Comm Manager also puts your phone in visible mode automatically. For more information about using the Comm Manager, see Chapter 14.
