Bluetooth

You can use Bluetooth to send data by running a corresponding application, but not 
from the Bluetooth menu as on most other mobile phones.

NOTE:

• 

LG is not responsible for the loss, interception or misuse of data sent or 
received via the Bluetooth wireless feature.

• 

Always ensure that you share and receive data with devices that are trusted 
and properly secured. If there are obstacles between the devices, the 
operating distance may be reduced.

• 

Some devices, especially those that are not tested or approved by 
Bluetooth SIG, may be incompatible with your device.

Turning on Bluetooth and pairing up your phone with a Bluetooth device

You must pair your device with another device before you connect to it.

1  

Touch 

 > 

Apps

 tab > 

Settings

 > set 

Bluetooth

 to 

ON

 from the WIRELESS & 

NETWORKS tab.

2  

Tap the 

Bluetooth

 menu again. You will see the model name and checkbox to make 

your phone visible. You can view the devices in the Bluetooth Range automatically.

3  

Choose the device you want to pair with from the list.

Once the paring is successful, your device will connect to the other device.

NOTE: 

Some devices, especially headsets or hands-free car kits, may have a 

fixed Bluetooth PIN, such as 0000. If the other device has a PIN, you will be 
asked to enter it.
