Glossary
1. Bluetooth is a radio technology that connects devices, such as mobile phones and car
speaker, without wires or cords over a short distance (approx. 10 meters/33 feet). Bluetooth
is safe to use. It is secure too, so once a connecon has been made no-one can listen in and
there is no interference from other Bluetooth devices either. Get more informaon at www.
bluetooth.com.
2. Bluetooth proles are the dierent ways that Bluetooth devices communicate with other
devices. Bluetooth phones support the headset prole, the hands-free prole or both. In
order to support a certain prole, a phone manufacturer must implement certain mandatory
features within the phone’s soware.
3. Pairing creates a unique and encrypted link between two Bluetooth devices and lets them
communicate with each other. Bluetooth devices will not work if the devices have not been
paired.
4. Standby mode is when the HTC BS C100 is passively waing for a call. When you ‘end’ a call
on your mobile phone, the car speaker goes into standby mode.
