Pair Bluetooth Devices

The Bluetooth pairing process allows you to
establish trusted connections between your device
and another Bluetooth device.
Pairing between two Bluetooth devices is a one-time
process. Once a pairing is created, the devices
will continue to recognize their partnership and
exchange information without having to re-enter a
passcode.
1. From a Home screen, tap
> CONNECTIONS.
2. Tap Bluetooth, and then tap ON/OFF to turn on
Bluetooth.
3. Make sure that the target device is discoverable,
so that your device can find it. Refer to the
instructions that came with the device to find out
how to set it to discoverable mode.
4. Tap SCAN. Your device starts scanning for
Bluetooth devices within range.
5. When you see the name of the target device
displayed in the Bluetooth devices section, tap
the name. Your device then automatically tries to
pair with the target device. If automatic pairing
fails, enter the passcode supplied with the target
device.
