Bluetooth (optional)
Bluetooth wireless technology is designed to replace cables between devices, such
as your printer, keyboard, and mouse.
Bluetooth wireless technology operates over a short distance. Bluetooth devices use
radio transmission, which enables your computer, mobile phone, printer,
keyboard, mouse, and other devices to communicate with each other without
cables.
There are several uses for Bluetooth wireless technology, including, but not limited
to:

Creating a wireless connection to the Internet with a mobile phone.

Transferring files between computers or between a computer and another
device.

Printing to a Bluetooth wireless printer.

Using a Bluetooth wireless keyboard and mouse.

Joining a personal area network (PAN).

Synchronizing a personal digital assistant (PDA) to a computer or another
device using Bluetooth wireless technology.
The data transfer speed for Bluetooth wireless technology can be up to 700 kilobits
(Kbp/s) per second. The data transfer speed can vary depending on the device or
environmental factors. A Bluetooth device can transmit through walls, pockets, and
briefcases.
Since Bluetooth is using the same frequency range as WLAN, simultaneous use
might cause interference. If this should happen you can disable one service
temporary.
Using the key combination Fn + F9 you can enable or disable the Bluetooth
function.
Warning!
Make sure the Bluetooth option is switched OFF in any environment
where it might interfere with critical and sensitive devices, e.g., on
aircraft, in hospitals and other medical centres, etc.
