Tip You can change the name of a paired device. When you pair
with other Bluetooth wireless technology enabled phones, it is
very useful to include the user's name as part of the device
name. This will make it very easy to beam information to the

Passkeys

Passkeys ensure that the device you pair with really is the device
you think it is. A passkey is a set of numbers and/or letters (at
least four characters) that you agree to exchange with the owner
of the other device. Simply agree a passcode with the other user
and each enter the same code into both devices when asked for
it. The actual code is up to you; the important thing is that you
both enter the same code. Accessories like headsets often have a
default passkey, usually ‘0000’, see the specific user’s guide.
