Bluetooth technology
Bluetooth technology basics About Bluetooth
Bluetooth® technology is designed to establish a wireless connection between your BlackBerry® device and a Bluetooth enabled device, such as a hands-free car kit or a wireless headset.
User GuideManage Connections230 
						

							Before you can connect your BlackBerry device to a Bluetooth enabled device, you must first turn on Bluetooth technology on
both devices and then pair the devices. Pairing establishes a relationship between the devices and usually needs to be done
only once.
After you pair the devices, you can connect the devices when the Bluetooth enabled device is within range of your BlackBerry
device (a typical range is approximately 10 meters). For best results, keep your BlackBerry device within direct line of sight of
the Bluetooth enabled device. For example, if your BlackBerry device is on the right side of your body, wear a Bluetooth
enabled headset in your right ear.
When you turn on Bluetooth technology or when you connect your BlackBerry device to another Bluetooth enabled device,
Bluetooth status indicators appear at the top of the Home screen.
Turn on Bluetooth technology
1. On the Home screen, click the connections area at the top of the screen, or click the  Manage Connections icon.
2. Select the  Bluetooth check box.

If necessary, do one of the following: • If the Bluetooth enabled device does not have a keyboard (for example, a wireless headset), on your BlackBerry device,type the pairing passkey that either appears on the Bluetooth enabled device or is provided in the documentation thatcame with the Bluetooth enabled device. The passkey is most often a numeric or alphanumeric code.
• If the Bluetooth enabled device has a keyboard (for example, a laptop), type a pairing passkey of your choice on both devices.
