Operating Your Computer 2-21
Using the Bluetooth Feature (Optional)
NOTE: To take advantage of the Bluetooth feature, the Bluetooth driver supplied with
your computer must be installed. (See chapter 6 for details.)
Depending on your model, your computer may incorporate the Bluetooth
capability for short-range (about 10 meters) wireless communications
between devices without requiring a cable connection.
With Bluetooth, data can be transmitted through walls, pockets and
briefcases as long as two devices are within range. By default, your
computer’s Bluetooth feature is active (always ON) upon booting your
computer and is in the general discoverable and pairable mode.
The status of the Bluetooth connection is indicated by the Bluetooth icon
located in the system tray in the lower-right part of the screen.
