About Bluetooth
Bluetooth technology is designed to establish a wireless connection between your BlackBerry smartphone and a Bluetooth
enabled device, such as a hands-free car kit or a wireless headset.
Before you can connect your BlackBerry smartphone 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 smartphone (a typical range is approximately 10 meters). For best results, keep your BlackBerry smartphone
within direct line of sight of the Bluetooth enabled device. For example, if your BlackBerry smartphone 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 smartphone to another Bluetooth enabled
device, Bluetooth status indicators appear at the top of the home screen.
