1.Open the application where the item you want to send is stored.

2.Select the item, and select Options > Send > Via Bluetooth. The device searches for other devices using Bluetooth technology within range and lists them.

Tip: If you have sent data using Bluetooth before, a list of the previous search results is displayed. To search for more Bluetooth devices, select More devices.

3.Select the device with which you want to connect, and press the joystick to set up the connection. If the other device requires pairing before data can be transmitted, you are asked to enter a passcode.

4.When the connection has been established, Sending data is shown.

Bluetooth connectivity indicators

Bluetooth is active.

When the icon is blinking, your device is trying to connect to the other device. When the icon is shown continuously, the Bluetooth connection is active.

Pair devices

Select Menu > Connect. > Bluetooth, and scroll right to open the Paired devices page.

Before pairing, create your own passcode (1-16 digits), and agree with the user of the other device to use the same code. Devices that do not have a user interface have a fixed passcode. You need the passcode only when you connect the devices for the first time. After pairing, it is possible to authorize the connection. See "Authorize a device," p. 65. Pairing and authorizing the connection makes connecting quicker and easier, as you do not have to accept a connection between paired devices every time you establish the connection. The passcode for remote SIM access must have 16 digits.
