8.6 Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Phones with Bluetooth capabilities can

exchange information within a distance of about 10 meters without requiring a physical connection.

Bluetooth modes

Bluetooth on your phone operates in three different modes:

1.

On. Bluetooth is turned on. Your phone can detect other Bluetooth-enabled devices, but not vice versa.

2.

Off. Bluetooth is turned off. In this mode, you can neither send nor receive information using

Bluetooth. You might want to turn off the radio at times to conserve battery power, or in situations

where radio use is prohibited, such as onboard aircraft and in hospitals.

3.

Visible. Bluetooth is turned on, and all other Bluetooth-enabled devices within range can detect your

phone.

Note When you disable Flight mode, it turns the phone function back on. This also restores the previous state of Bluetooth.

To turn on or off Bluetooth on your phone

You can enable Bluetooth by clicking the On/Off switch in Comm Manager. You can also do the following:

1.

On the Home screen, click Start > Settings > Connections > Bluetooth.

2.

Click Bluetooth > Menu > Turn on Bluetooth.

To turn off Bluetooth capabilities on your phone, click Bluetooth > Menu > Turn off Bluetooth.
