Connectivity

Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices with
Bluetooth capabilities can exchange data over a distance of approximately 10 metres
without requiring a wired connection.
To ensure interoperability between other devices supporting Bluetooth technology,
use Vertu approved enhancements for this model. Check with the manufacturers of
other devices to determine their compatibility with this device.
Bluetooth on your Vertu phone has three modes: "Off", "On and Hidden" and "On and
Visible".
In "Off" mode, you cannot send or receive data using Bluetooth.
In "On and Hidden" mode, your Vertu phone can search for and connect to other
devices. However, your phone will not be visible in searches by other devices.
In "On and Visible" mode, your Vertu phone can search for and connect to other
devices. Your phone will also be visible to other devices.
Changing Bluetooth mode
By default, Bluetooth is in "Off" mode. Bluetooth will remain in the same mode when
turning your Vertu phone off and on.
To change Bluetooth mode from "Off" to "On and Hidden":
1. From the Home screen, select Menu
2. Select Bluetooth > Bluetooth.
3. Select On.
4. If you have not changed the visibility setting, a query will be displayed asking

Pairing devices
When devices are paired, a relationship is created that enables the exchange of data
between the devices.
The pairing can be set up using a passcode, which helps ensure that exchanged data
is kept secure.
Pairing of devices only needs to be carried out once. After this, the devices can
connect to each other and exchange data without the passcode needing to be
entered again.
Before pairing your Vertu phone with another device, ensure that:
• Your Vertu phone and the other device are within 10 metres of each other.
• Bluetooth on your Vertu phone is set to "On and hidden" or "On and Visible".
• Bluetooth on the other device is set to "On and Visible".
To pair your Vertu phone with another device:
1. From the Home screen, select Menu
2. Select Bluetooth > Paired devices.
3. Select Add new device. Your Vertu phone searches for other Bluetooth-
enabled devices and displays them in a list.
4. Scroll to the device to pair with, then select Add.
5. Wait for the other device to accept the pairing. It is then added to the list of paired
devices.
6. Check that the passcodes on the devices match, then select Yes.
