TIP Use the Visible option only when you need your smartphone to be accessible for an extended period of time. For short term accessibility, use the Temporary option.

Temporary: Enables Bluetooth devices that are not on your Trusted Devices list to request a connection with your smartphone during the next two minutes. Your smartphone reverts to the Hidden setting and becomes inaccessible to other devices after two minutes.

Hidden: Allows only devices with which you have previously formed a partnership to request a connection with your smartphone. New devices cannot request a connection.

5Enter the same passkey on your smartphone and on the Bluetooth device.

IMPORTANT Some Bluetooth devices, such as headsets and GPS receivers, have a preset passkey; if so, you can find the passkey in the documentation for that device. Other devices provide a screen where you enter a passkey that you make up. In either case, you must use the same passkey on both your Treo and the other Bluetooth device. We recommend that where possible, you make up a passkey of 16 alphanumeric characters (letters and numerals only) to improve the security of your Treo. The longer the passkey, the more difficult it is for the passkey to be deciphered.

6(Optional) Check the Add to trusted device list box if you want to form a partnership with the requesting device.

7Select OK.
