Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications
technology that devices can use to exchange
information. The most common Bluetooth devices are
headphones for listening to music and other portable
devices, including laptops and mobile phones.
To connect to a Bluetooth device, you must turn
on your device's Bluetooth. To use your device's
Bluetooth with another device, you must first pair up
the two devices. Pairing creates a secure connection
between the two devices.

To pair up your device with a Bluetooth
device
You must pair up your device with another device
before you connect to it.
If Bluetooth is off, you need to touch Bluetooth to
turn it on first.
• Apps > Settings > Wireless & networks >
Bluetooth settings > Find devices nearby
1. Your device will scan for and display the IDs of
all available Bluetooth in-range devices. If the
device you want to pair up with is not on the
list, make sure the target device is set to be
discoverable, then scan again.
2. Touch the ID of the device you want to pair
up with your device. If you're prompted to
enter a passcode, try entering 0000 or 1234
(the most common passcodes), or consult the
documentation that came with the target device
to find its passcode.
3. Once the pairing is successful, your device will
connect to the device.
