Bluetooth checkbox.

Pairing devices

When devices are paired, a relationship is created

that enables the exchange of data between the

devices.
The pairing can be set up using a passcode, which

will ensure that exchanged data is kept secure.
Pairing of devices only needs to be carried out once.

After this, the devices can connect to each other and

exchange data without the passcode needing to be

entered again.
Before pairing your Toshiba phone with another

device, ensure that:

• Your Toshiba phone and the other device are

within 10 metres of each other.

• Bluetooth on your Toshiba phone is set to On or

Visible.

• Bluetooth on the other device is set to Visible.

To pair your Toshiba phone with another device:

1. From the Today screen, tap Start > Settings.
2. Tap the Connections tab.
3. Tap Bluetooth.
4. On the Devices tab, tap Add new device...

Your Toshiba phone will search for other

Bluetooth-enabled devices and display them in

a list.

5. Tap the required device, then tap Next.
6. For enhanced security, enter a passcode in the

Passcode: field. This is alphanumeric, and can

be between 1 and 16 characters in length.

7. Tap Next.
8. Wait for the other device to accept the pairing. If

a passcode has been set on your Toshiba

phone, then it will need to be entered on the

other device.

9. To edit the settings for the device, tap

Advanced. You can then edit the name to be

used for the device, and select services to use

from the device. Tap Save when you have

finished.

To finish the pairing without editing the settings,

tap Done.

TIP: You can also toggle Bluetooth mode

using Wireless Manager.
