To allow a paired device to connect automatically to your
device, select Set as authorised. Connections between your
device and the other device can be made without your
knowledge. No separate acceptance or authorisation is

to someone you trust. If you want to accept connection
requests from the other device separately every time, select
Set as unauthorised.
To use a Bluetooth audio accessory, such as a Bluetooth
handsfree or headset, you need to pair your device with the

automatically to your device. Otherwise, open the paired
devices tab, and select the accessory and Options > Connect
to audio device.

Security tips
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
device.
Select Menu > Ctrl. panel > Connectivity > Bluetooth.
When you are not using Bluetooth connectivity, select
Bluetooth > Off or My phone's visibility > Hidden.
Do not pair with an unknown device.
