Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range communications technology
that connects your device wirelessly to a number of
Bluetooth devices, such as headsets and hands-free car
Bluetooth systems, and Bluetooth-enabled computers,
printers, and wireless devices.
The Bluetooth communication range is approximately
30 feet.
Pair with a Bluetooth Device
The Bluetooth pairing process allows you to establish
trusted connections between your device and another
Bluetooth device.
Pairing between two Bluetooth devices is a one-
time process. Once a pairing is created, the devices
continue to recognize their partnership and exchange
information without having to re-enter a passcode.
1. From a Home screen, swipe up to access Apps.
2. Tap Settings > Connections > Bluetooth, and
then tap On/Off to turn on Bluetooth.
•
Make sure that the target device is discoverable
so that your device can find it. Refer to the
instructions that came with the device to find
out how to set it to discoverable mode.
•
When Bluetooth is first turned on, it scans for
nearby Bluetooth devices and displays them.
•
To manually perform a new scan, tap Scan.
3. Tap the name of the target device when you see it
displayed in the Bluetooth devices section.
•
Your device automatically tries to pair with the
target device. If automatic pairing fails, enter
the passcode supplied with the target device.
