Pair devices

Glossary: Pairing means authentication. The users of the

two devices with Bluetooth technology should agree
on a common passcode, and use the same passcode for

both devices in order to pair them. Devices that do not
have a user interface have a factory-set passcode.

In the

Bluetooth

main view, press

to open the paired

devices view (

Before pairing, create your own passcode (1—16 digits),
and agree with the owner of the other device to use the
same code. The passcode is used only once.

Devices with wireless Bluetooth technology that are within
range start to appear on the display one by one. Select the
device, and enter the passcode. The same passcode must be
entered on the other device as well. After pairing, the
