Bluetooth technology allows you to connect the phone to a compatible Bluetooth device
within 10 meters (32 feet). Since devices using Bluetooth technology communicate using
radio waves, your phone and the other devices do not need to be in direct line-of-sight,
although the connection can be subject to interference from obstructions such as walls or
from other electronic devices.
Key message:
• Operating the device in hidden mode is a safer way to avoid malicious software.
• Do not accept Bluetooth connectivity from sources you do not trust.
• Alternatively, switch off the Bluetooth function. This does not affect other functions of
the phone.
