Pairing Bluetooth Devices
The Bluetooth pairing process allows you to establish trusted
connections between your device and another Bluetooth device.
When you pair devices, they share a passkey, allowing for fast,
secure connections while bypassing the discovery and
authentication process.

Verify your Bluetooth is active.

Tap Scan for devices. Your device will display a list of

Tap a device from the list to initiate pairing.

Note: Due to different specifications and features of other Bluetooth-
compatible devices, display and operations may be different, and
functions such as transfer or exchange may not be possible with all
Bluetooth compatible devices.
Note: Pairing between two Bluetooth devices is a one-time process. Once a
pairing has been created, the devices will continue to recognize their
partnership and exchange information without having to re-enter a
passcode again.
Disconnecting a paired device
Disconnecting a paired device breaks the connection between
the device and your phone, but retains the knowledge of the
pairing. At a later point when you wish to reconnect the device,
there is no need to setup the connection information again.
Verify your Bluetooth is active.
