Bluetooth
®
Your phone has a Bluetooth interface. This
makes it possible to establish a wireless
connection with your phone and a headset,
a car kit or other Bluetooth-enabled
devices.
In order to establish a secure link between
the devices and to prevent a third party
from having access to your phone, you
should observe the following points:
• The initial connection between two
devices, what is called "pairing", should
take place in familiar surroundings.
• Both devices must be able to identify
themselves one time by using a
password/PIN. To ensure sufficient
security, you should choose a 16-digit
number combination for a password that
would be difficult to guess (if a PIN has
not been assigned).
• An automatic connection acceptance
("connection without confirmation")
should only be used in exceptional cases.
• In general, only trustworthy devices
should be linked in order to minimise
security risks.
• You should restrict the "visibility" of your
phone if possible. This will make it much
more difficult for unknown devices to
establish a connection with your phone.
To do this, in the Bluetooth menu, set the
option Bluetooth visibility from On to Off
(page 79).
• The name of your phone is transmitted in
a Bluetooth connection. The factory
default is the "Bluetooth ID". The first
time Bluetooth is activated, or later in the
Bluetooth menu, you can change this
name (Bluetooth name, page 79).
• If Bluetooth is not needed, this function
should be deactivated.
• Before using Bluetooth accessories, or a
mobile phone inside a vehicle, check the
vehicle user guide for any limitations on
the use of these products.
As mobile devices offer a range of
functions, they can be used in positions
other than the head, such as on the body.
In this case, separation distance of 1.5 cm
is required.
