Bluetooth  101

Creating a Bluetooth partnership between two devices is a one-time process. Once a partnership is created, the devices can recognize the partnership and exchange information without entering a passcode again.

To accept a Bluetooth partnership

1.Ensure that Bluetooth is turned on and in visible mode.

2.When prompted, enter or accept the passcode (the same passcode from the device requesting the partnership) to establish a secure connection.

3.Tap OK. The paired device now appears in the Devices tab ( ). You can now exchange information with the paired device.

Tip To delete a Bluetooth partnership, select the device’s name on the Devices tab, then tap Menu > Delete. When prompted to confirm, tap Yes.

9.3  Connecting 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 phone. Your phone also supports A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) which allows you to use a Bluetooth stereo headset for hands-free phone conversations and for listening to stereo music.

To connect a Bluetooth hands-free or stereo headset

1.Make sure that both your phone and the Bluetooth headset are turned on and within close range, and that the headset is visible. Refer to the manufacturer’s documentation to find out how to set the headset in visible mode.

2.Tap Start > Settings > Communications and then tap Bluetooth.

3.On the Settings tab ( ), tap Add a device.

4.Select the hands-free or stereo headset device in the list, then tap Select. Your phone will automatically connect with the Bluetooth headset.

Note Your phone will automatically try one of the preconfigured passcodes (0000, 8888) to pair with the Bluetooth headset. If this fails, you have to manually enter the passcode delivered with your headset.

5.When connected, the hands-free or stereo headset device is shown on the screen, including the Bluetooth services (Hands-free and Stereo Audio) that you can use with it. Make sure these services are selected, and then tap Done.

The paired headset now appears in the Devices tab ( ).

The double arrowhead that is displayed to the right of a service indicates that the service is connected with your headset.

If you turn off your headset, the double arrowhead disappears to indicate that the service has been disconnected. Next time you turn on and use your headset again, you need to manually reconnect each service. Tap a service and then tap Connect.
