Turning Bluetooth On and Off

Bluetooth is a short-range communications technology that allows you to connect wirelessly to a number of Bluetooth devices, such as headsets and hands-free car kits, and Bluetooth-enabled handhelds, computers, printers, and wireless phones. The Bluetooth communication range is usually up to approximately 30 feet. By default, your device’s Bluetooth feature is turned off. Turning Bluetooth on makes your phone “discoverable” by other in-range Bluetooth devices.
