How to Pair a Bluetooth Accessory with Your Device
The first time you use a Bluetooth accessory, you must pair the accessory and the device. You can also follow these
steps to pair your NVIDIA device with another Bluetooth device such as a smart phone.
NOTE The Google Keyboard on the touchscreen is not active when a Bluetooth keyboard is paired with your
device.
1. Follow the instructions from your accessory’s manufacturer to put the accessory
into Pair mode.
2. On your NVIDIA device, go to Settings > Wireless & Networks.
3. Tap Bluetooth. The Bluetooth control panel opens.
4. If Bluetooth is off, tap the ON/OFF switch to turn on Bluetooth.
5. If your NVIDIA device is visible only to paired devices, tap the device name to
enable visibility. Your device searches for nearby Bluetooth accessories.
6. When the Bluetooth accessory appears in the list of Available Devices, tap the
accessory’s name to pair it. If the pairing is successful, the accessory now appears
on the list of Paired Devices.
NOTE Some devices require a passkey before pairing. In these cases, your SHIELD device prompts you to
verify that the passkey is appearing on your other device. Respond to any security prompt on that
device. Then on your SHIELD device, tap Pair to complete the pairing or Cancel to cancel the pairing.
