Connecting to a Bluetooth hands-free
device
Once you set up a partnership with a
Bluetooth hands-free device, you can
communicate with that device whenever it
is turned on and within range. Bluetooth
range is up to 30 feet in optimum
environmental conditions. Performance
and range may be reduced by physical
obstacles, radio interference from nearby
electronic equipment, and other factors.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Prepare your
hands-free device to accept a Bluetooth
connection. See the documentation that
came with your hands-free device for
instructions.
1 Press Applications and select
Bluetooth or tap the Bluetooth
icon in the title bar.
2 Select Bluetooth On .
NOTE
The Bluetooth icon changes from
gray to blue to let you know that Bluetooth
technology is turned on.

example, your smartphone and a hands-free
device—that can connect because each

device. Once you form a partnership with a

also known as paired relationship, pairing,
trusted device, and trusted pair.
