Bluetooth (Menu 9.6) Using the Bluetooth feature, you can connect the phone wirelessly to other Bluetooth devices and exchange data with them, talk hands-free, or control the phone remotely. Bluetooth technology allows free wireless connections between all Bluetooth-compliant devices within a range of 10 meters. Since the devices communicate using radio waves, they do not need to be in the line of sight to each other. • If there are obstacles between the devices, the operating distance may be reduced. • It is recommended that for better performance, you do not use the Bluetooth feature while using multimedia features. • Some devices, especially those that are not tested or approved by Bluetooth SIG, may be incompatible with your phone. Setting up the Bluetooth feature The Bluetooth menu provides the following options: • Activation: activate or deactivate the Bluetooth feature. • My devices: search for connectable Bluetooth devices. • My phone's visibility: allow other Bluetooth devices to locate your phone, or hide your visibility. • My phone's name: assign a Bluetooth device name to your phone, which is then displayed on other devices. • Secure mode: determine if the phone asks for your confirmation when other devices access your data. • Bluetooth services: display available Bluetooth services. 91 Menu functions Settings (Menu 9)
