9.1 Bluetooth Modes
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can
exchange information over a distance of about eight meters without requiring a physical connection.
Bluetooth on your device operates in three different modes:
On
. Bluetooth is turned on. Your device can detect other Bluetooth-enabled devices, but not vice versa.
Visible
. Bluetooth is turned on, and all other Bluetooth-enabled devices can detect your device.
Off
. Bluetooth is turned off. In this mode, you can neither send nor receive information using Bluetooth.
Notes
•
By default, Bluetooth is turned off. If you turn it on, then turn off your device, Bluetooth also turns off. When you
turn on your device again, Bluetooth automatically turns on.
•
Turn off Bluetooth when not in use to conserve battery power, or in places where using a wireless device is
prohibited, such as on board an aircraft and in hospitals.
