6-3 Using Bluetooth®
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology that allows you to communicate
with other devices, such as headsets, printers, PCs, GPS receivers, and other users' mobile
devices. Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information without requiring a physical
connection. Unlike infrared, you do not need to line up devices to exchange information through
Bluetooth. The devices only need to be within a range of about 10 meters (�0 feet) in an open space
environment. You can even beam information to a device in a different room, as long as it is within
the specified range.
Setting the Bluetooth mode
By default Bluetooth is turned off. If you turn it on, and then turn off your phone, Bluetooth also turns
off. When you turn on your phone again, Bluetooth turns on automatically.
To set the Bluetooth mode
1. On the Home screen, press Start > Settings > Connections > Bluetooth.
2. Select On, Off, or Discoverable, and press Done .
NOTE

You can also turn Bluetooth on and off by pressing and quickly releasing Power
to access the Quick List and selecting Wireless Manager. Select Bluetooth >
Menu > Bluetooth Settings to set Bluetooth mode or select Bluetooth and
press to quickly toggle Bluetooth on and off.
