Making a Bluetooth®

Connection

The following sections cover how to connect your phone to another Bluetooth device.

Note: Some Bluetooth devices only have full functionality when DTMF dialing is set to On. See “Phone Calls Features” on page 153.

Sharing Your Phone’s Bluetooth® Address

To bond with your phone, devices must have your phone’s Bluetooth address. To find devices that you want to bond with, you can make your phone discoverable, so that other devices learn your phone’s Bluetooth address. You can also have your phone search for Bluetooth devices to learn their addresses.

Allowing Bluetooth® Devices to Find Your Phone

To let devices find your phone and its Bluetooth address, place your phone in discoverable mode.

Discoverable mode lasts for the duration selected under Find Me Duration in the Bluetooth Setup menu. During this time, other devices that are within range can detect your phone. You can then choose to grant or deny each device’s request to bond.

Note: You must grant the device’s request in order to receive information from the device on your phone.

To start discoverable mode, from the main menu, select Bluetooth > Find Me.

Discovering Bluetooth® Devices

To have your phone search for Bluetooth devices:

From the main menu, select Bluetooth > Hands Free > [Find Devices].

A list of hands free devices displays. Devices that do not have a name are listed by their Bluetooth address.

To stop the search and go to the list of found devices, press A under Stop.

To stop the search and return to the previous screen, press A under Cancel.
