Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology
capable of exchanging information over a distance of about 30
feet without requiring a physical connection. Unlike infrared, you
don't need to line up the devices to beam information with
Bluetooth. If the devices are within connectivity range of one
another, you can exchange information between them, even if
they are located in different rooms.
The Bluetooth wireless technology settings menu provides the
ability to view and change the device name, show the visibility,
and set the security for the device.
Bluetooth: allows you to use the Bluetooth features available when
•
Bluetooth is activated. When the Bluetooth is deactivated, you cannot
send or receive information via Bluetooth. To save battery life or in
situations where Bluetooth use is prohibited, you can turn off the
Bluetooth headset.
Discoverable: allows your phone to wirelessly transmit its phone

name and status, when activated. This can be useful if you are

Bluetooth security option. Highlight the option (On/Off) and press the
Select soft key or the key.
