exchange information over a distance of about 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.
Discoverable
•
. 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.
Notes
•
By default, Bluetooth is turned off. If you turn it on, then turn off your phone, Bluetooth also turns off.
When you turn on your phone again, Bluetooth automatically turns on.
•
Turn off Bluetooth when not in use to conserve battery power, or in places where using a wireless
device is prohibited, such as on board an aircraft and in hospitals.
