Bluetooth

This device is compliant with Bluetooth Specification 1.2 supporting the following profiles: Generic Access Profile, Serial Port
Profile, Dial-up Networking Profile, Headset Profile, Handsfree Profile, Generic Object Exchange Profile, Object Push Profile, File
Transfer Profile, SIM Access Profile, and Basic Imaging Profile.. To ensure interoperability between other devices supporting
Bluetooth technology, use Nokia approved enhancements for this model. Check with the manufacturers of other devices to
determine their compatibility with this device.
Bluetooth technology enables wireless connections between electronic devices within a range of 10 meters (33 feet). A Bluetooth
connection can be used to send images, videos, texts, business cards, calendar notes, or to connect wirelessly to devices using
Bluetooth technology, such as computers.
Since devices using Bluetooth technology communicate using radio waves, your device and the other devices do not need to
be in direct line-of-sight. The two devices only need to be within a maximum of 10 meters of each other, although the connection
can be subject to interference from obstructions such as walls or from other electronic devices.
