Connecting a Bluetooth headset or car kit
You can listen to music over a Bluetooth stereo headset, or have hands-free
conversations using a compatible Bluetooth headset or car kit. It’s the same procedure
to set up stereo audio and hands-free.
For you to listen to music with your headset or car kit, the headset or car kit
must support the A2DP Bluetooth profile.
Before you connect your headset, you need to make it discoverable so
your phone can find it. You can find out how to do this by referring to your
headset manual.
