9.1 Bluetooth Modes

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices with
Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information over a distance of about 26 feet
(eight meters) without requiring a physical connection.
Bluetooth on your phone operates in three different modes:
• On. Bluetooth is turned on. Your phone can detect other Bluetooth-enabled
devices, but not vice versa.
• Visible. Bluetooth is turned on, and all other Bluetooth-enabled devices can
detect your phone.
• Off. Bluetooth is turned off. In this mode, you can neither send nor receive
information using Bluetooth.

using a wireless device is prohibited, such as on board aircraft and in hospitals.
