smartphone, type the pairing passkey that either appears on the Bluetooth enabled device or is provided in the
documentation that came with the Bluetooth enabled device. The passkey is most often a numeric or alphanumeric
code.

Connect to or disconnect from a paired Bluetooth enabled device
To perform this task, Bluetooth® technology must be turned on and your BlackBerry® smartphone must be paired with the
Bluetooth enabled device.
Your BlackBerry smartphone might attempt to connect to a Bluetooth enabled device automatically when Bluetooth
technology is turned on and the devices are within range. Your BlackBerry smartphone will usually stay connected to a paired
Bluetooth enabled device, such as a car kit or headset, until you disconnect the devices.
1. On the Home screen, click the connections area at the top of the screen, or click the Manage Connections icon.
2. Click Networks and Connections > Bluetooth Connections.
3. Highlight a Bluetooth enabled device.
• To connect to a Bluetooth enabled device, press the
key > Connect. If necessary, verify that the same number
appears in the dialog boxes on both paired devices.
• To disconnect from a paired Bluetooth enabled device, highlight the device. Press the
key > Disconnect.

About Bluetooth
Bluetooth® technology is designed to establish a wireless connection between your BlackBerry® smartphone and a Bluetooth
enabled device, such as a hands-free car kit or a wireless headset.
Before you can connect your BlackBerry smartphone to a Bluetooth enabled device, you must first turn on Bluetooth
technology on both devices and then pair the devices. Pairing establishes a relationship between the devices and usually needs
to be done only once.
