Getting connected
Bluetooth™ technology
Bluetooth™ technology enables wireless communication over
short distances. Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can
exchange information over a distance of about eight meters
without requiring a physical connection.
Bluetooth™ modes
Bluetooth™ functionality in your phone operates in three
different modes:
•On – Bluetooth functionality is turned on. Your phone can
detect other Bluetooth-enabled devices, but they cannot
detect your phone.
•Off – Bluetooth functionality is turned off. You can neither
send nor receive information over a Bluetooth link. Turn off
Bluetooth functionality when not in use to conserve battery
power, or in places where using a wireless device is
prohibited, such as on board an aircraft or in hospitals.
•Visible – Bluetooth functionality is turned on, and other
Bluetooth-enabled devices can detect your phone.
By default, Bluetooth functionality is turned off. To have it turned
on by default, turn it on, then immediately turn off your phone.
When you next time turn on your phone, Bluetooth functionality
is on.
To turn on Bluetooth™ functionality and make your phone
visible
1Tap > Settings > Connections tab > Bluetooth™ >
Mode tab.
2Mark the Turn on Bluetooth and Make this device visible to
other devices check boxes.
3Tap ok.
Bluetooth™ partnership
A Bluetooth™ partnership is a relationship you create between
your phone and another Bluetooth-enabled device in order to
exchange information in a secure manner.
To create a Bluetooth™ partnership
1Tap > Settings > Connections tab > Bluetooth™.
2On the Devices tab, tap Add new device. Your phone will
then search for other Bluetooth devices and display them in
the box.
3Tap the desired device name.
4Tap Next.
5Specify a passcode to establish a secure connection. The
passcode can be 1 to 16 characters.
6Tap Next.
7Wait for the paired device to accept the partnership. The
receiving party needs to enter the same passcode that you
specified.
8The name of the paired device is displayed. You may edit and
enter a new name for it.
9Mark the check boxes for the services you want to use from
the paired device.
10 Tap Finish.
Creating a Bluetooth partnership between two devices is a one-
time process. Once a partnership is created, the devices will
recognize each other automatically when they are close enough
and have the Bluetooth function on. There is thus no need to enter
the passcode again.
To accept a Bluetooth™ partnership
1Ensure that Bluetooth™ functionality is turned on and that
your phone is in visible mode.
2Tap Yes when prompted to establish a partnership with the
other device.
3Enter a passcode (the same passcode that is entered on the
device requesting the partnership) to establish a secure
connection. The passcode must be between 1 to 16
characters.
4Tap Next.

Connecting a Bluetooth™ handsfree or
stereo headset
For handsfree phone conversation, you can use a Bluetooth™
handsfree headset such as a car kit with your phone. Your phone
also supports A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) which
means you can use a Bluetooth stereo headset for handsfree
phone conversations and for listening to stereo music.
To connect a Bluetooth™ handsfree or stereo headset
1Make sure that both your phone and the Bluetooth™ headset
are turned on and within close range, and that the headset is
visible. Refer to the manufacturer’s documentation to find out
how to set the headset in visible mode.
2Tap > Settings > Connections tab > Bluetooth.
3On the Devices tab, tap Add new device. Your phone will
then search for other Bluetooth devices and display them in
the box.
4Tap the name of the Bluetooth headset, then tap Next and
your phone will automatically pair with the Bluetooth headset.
5Make sure the Hands Free check box is marked. If your
headset is a stereo headset, also make sure Wireless
Stereo is marked.
6Tap Finish. While the Bluetooth stereo headset is connected,
the headset icon will appear on the title bar.
If a Bluetooth stereo headset is disconnected, turn on the headset
and repeat steps 1 to 3 above. Tap and hold the name of the
Bluetooth stereo headset and tap Set as Wireless Stereo.
Windows® Mobile will automatically try one of the preconfigured
passcodes (0000, 1111, 8888, 1234) to pair the Bluetooth headset
with the device. If this fails, you have to manually enter the
passcode delivered with your headset.
Beaming information using a Bluetooth™
connection
You can beam information, such as contacts, calendar items,
and tasks, as well as files from your phone to your computer or
to another Bluetooth™-enabled device.
If your computer does not have built-in Bluetooth capability, you
need to connect a Bluetooth adapter or dongle to your computer.
To receive all incoming beams in your phone
1Tap > Settings > Connections tab > Beam.
2Make sure the Receive all incoming beams check box is
marked.
To beam information to a computer
1Turn on Bluetooth™ functionality in your phone, and make the
