your smartphone to be accessible for an

that are not on your Trusted Devices list

minutes. Your smartphone reverts to
the Hidden setting and becomes
inaccessible to other devices after two
minutes.
Hidden: Allows only devices with which
you have previously formed a partnership

IMPORTANT
such as headsets and GPS receivers, have
a preset passkey. If your device has a
predefined passkey, you can find it in the
documentation for that device. Other
devices provide a screen where you enter
a passkey that you make up. In either case,
you must use the same passkey on both
your smartphone and the other Bluetooth
device. We recommend that where
possible, you make up a passkey of 16
alphanumeric characters (letters and
numerals only) to improve the security of
your smartphone. The longer the passkey,
the more difficult it is for the passkey to be
deciphered.
6 (Optional) Check the Add to trusted
device list box if you want to form a
partnership with the requesting device.
7 Select OK.
