Connecting to an NFC compatible device

You can connect your device to other NFC compatible devices produced by Sony,

such as a speaker or a headphone. When establishing this kind of connection, refer

to the User guide of the compatible device for more information.

You may need to have Wi-Fi or Bluetooth® activated on both devices for the connection to

work.

Bluetooth® wireless technology

Use the Bluetooth® function to send files to other Bluetooth® compatible devices, or

to connect to handsfree accessories. Bluetooth® connections work better within 10

metres (33 feet), with no solid objects in between. In some cases you have to

manually pair your device with other Bluetooth® devices.

Interoperability and compatibility among Bluetooth® devices can vary.

If you are using a device with multiple users, each user can change the Bluetooth® settings,

and the changes affect all users.

Pairing with another Bluetooth

®

device

When you pair your device with another device, you can for example connect your
device to a Bluetooth

®

headset or a Bluetooth

®

car kit, and use these other devices

to share music.

Once you pair your device with another Bluetooth

®

device, your device remembers

this pairing. When pairing your device with a Bluetooth

®

device for the first time, you

may need to enter a passcode. Your device will automatically try the generic
passcode 0000. If this does not work, refer to the user guide for your Bluetooth

®

device to get the device passcode. You do not need to re-enter the passcode the
next time you connect to a previously paired Bluetooth

®

device.

Some Bluetooth

®

devices, for example, most Bluetooth

®

headsets, require you to both pair

and connect with the other device.

You can pair your device with several Bluetooth

®

devices, but you can only connect to one

Bluetooth

®

profile at the same time.
