Hands-Free Device
Once you set up a partnership with a Bluetooth hands-free device such as a headset or car
kit, you can communicate with that device whenever it is turned on and within range.
Bluetooth range is up to 30 feet in optimum environmental conditions. Performance and
range may be affected by physical obstacles, radio interference from nearby electronic
equipment, and other factors.
1. Press Applications and select Bluetooth , or tap the
Bluetooth icon in the title bar.
2. Select Bluetooth On.
3. (Optional) Enter a device name that identifies your device when
it is discovered by other Bluetooth devices.
4. Prepare your hands-free device to accept a connection from another Bluetooth device.
(For instructions, see the documentation that came with your hands-free device.)
Note
In the documentation for the other device, a partnership might be referred
to by a term such as trusted pair, trusted device, or pairing.
Note
Use the same device name for all your Bluetooth connections. If you
change the device name, you need to recreate any partnerships you have
already created.
