Using a phone headset :: 61
Connecting to a headset or car kit with Bluetooth wireless
technology
1. Go to Applications and select Bluetooth .
2. Select On.
3. Enter a device name for your phone. This is the name that appears on the other
Bluetooth device’s screen when it connects to your phone.
4. Prepare your headset or car kit to accept a connection from another Bluetooth
device. See the documentation that came with your hands-free device for
instructions.
5. Select Setup Devices.
6. Select Hands-free Setup.
7. Follow the onscreen instructions to create a partnership with the specific hands-
free device. When prompted, enter a passkey. Some hands-free devices may have
a built-in passkey; other devices may provide a screen where you enter the
passkey. In either case, you must use the same passkey on both your phone and
your hands-free device. We recommend that you use a passkey of 16 digits, where
possible, to improve the security of your phone. The longer the passkey, the more
difficult it is for the passkey to be deciphered. If the hands-free device has a built-
in passkey, see the device’s documentation for the passkey.
Your smartphone does not
support Bluetooth wireless
connections to stereo
headsets or keyboards.
If you’re using a hands-free
device with Bluetooth
wireless technology and it
is within range, your Treo
smartphone automatically
routes all calls to the
hands-free device instead
of to the handset. When a
call comes in, your
smartphone rings and the
headset beeps. Even if you
pick up the call on your
smartphone, the call goes
to the headset.
