Bluetooth partnerships

A Bluetooth partnership is a relationship that you create between your device and another

Bluetooth-enabled device in order to exchange information in a secure manner. Creating

a partnership between two devices involves entering the same personal identification

number (PIN) on both devices. Creating a partnership between two devices is a one-time

process. Once a partnership is created, the devices can recognize the partnership and

exchange information without entering a PIN again. Make sure the two devices are within

a range of 10 meters from one another, and Bluetooth is turned on and in discoverable

mode.
