Using Bluetooth

Before using
You can send data within 10 meters, but if there are
x
obstacles between the devices, the operating distance may
be reduced. Other manufacturers' handsets or PCs may be
incompatible with your handset.
Using the Bluetooth technology may affect battery
x
life. Turn off Bluetooth when it is not in use to prevent
unnecessary battery consumption.
Bluetooth may interfere with other wirless devices that use
x
the same frequency band.
Headsets and hands-free devices may not be discoverable
x
when they are connected to and in use with other devices,
or when other devices are attempting to pair with them.
When you make a call, listen to music, or watch TV with
x
a Bluetooth device, sound quality degrades and the
Bluetooth device will turn off as you move away from
the handset. If you exceed the operating distance, the
speakerphone feature will activate.
When you use a Bluetooth headset, sound quality may
x
degrade due to obstacles or interference. For optimal
performance, use a Bluetooth headset within a short
distance with no obstacles.
You may have difficulty hearing some calls in noisy
x
environments or outdoors, due to surrounding noise.
Some Bluetooth headsets may not be compatible with the
x
handset.
When you connect the handset to a Bluetooth-enabled car
x
stereo and tap the screen, the handset will switch to the
music screen.
