I cannot use the Bluetooth™ function

normal mode and then slide the Wireless switch.

I cannot find the Bluetooth™ device with which I want to communicate
❑
Check that the Bluetooth™ function of the device with which you want to communicate is on. See the
other device’s manual for more details.
❑
If the device with which you want to communicate is already communicating with another Bluetooth™
device, it may not be found or it may not be able to communicate with your notebook.
The data transfer rate is slow
❑
Check that the Bluetooth™ antenna is not covered.
❑
The data transfer speed depends on the obstacles and/or the distance between the two devices, but also
on the radio wave quality, the operating system or the software used. Try to move your notebook or try
to place the two devices closer.
