Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology capable of exchanging information between Bluetooth devices over a distance of about eight meters, without the need for a physical connection. There are three modes in which Bluetooth on your phone can operate:

• On: In this mode, Bluetooth is activated, allowing your phone to detect other Bluetooth-enabled devices, but not vice versa.
• Discoverable: In this mode, Bluetooth is activated and your phone can be detected by all other Bluetooth-enabled devices.
• Off: In this mode, Bluetooth is deactivated, preventing you from sending or receiving information via Bluetooth.

Please note that by default, Bluetooth is turned off. If you activate it and then switch off your phone, Bluetooth will also be deactivated. However, when you switch your phone back on, Bluetooth will automatically reactivate. It’s advisable to deactivate Bluetooth when it’s not in use to save battery power, or in places where the use of wireless devices is prohibited, such as on an airplane or in hospitals. Likewise see also the Nokia Asha 311 User Manual on here.

To activate Bluetooth and make your phone discoverable, follow these steps:

1. Press HOME, then press MENU, and then touch Settings.
2. Touch Wireless controls, then select the Bluetooth checkbox to activate Bluetooth. When activated, the Bluetooth icon will appear in the status bar.
3. Touch Bluetooth settings, then select the Discoverable checkbox to make your phone discoverable to other Bluetooth devices within range.

Remember, your phone will be discoverable for up to two minutes.

You can connect your phone to a Bluetooth hands-free headset or a Bluetooth car kit and use these devices to make and/or receive calls.

To pair and connect a Bluetooth hands-free headset or car kit, follow these steps:

1. Press HOME, then press MENU, and then touch Settings.
2. Touch Wireless controls > Bluetooth settings and then select the Bluetooth checkbox. Your phone will begin scanning for Bluetooth devices within range and will display all detected devices in the Bluetooth devices section.

Here are a few tips:

• If you can’t find the device in the list, touch Scan for devices to scan again.
• Ensure that the Bluetooth device you want to pair with is set to discoverable mode. Consult the Bluetooth device’s documentation to learn how to set it to discoverable mode.

Touch the hands-free headset or car kit in the list to start pairing. For some Bluetooth devices, you’ll need to enter a passcode to pair with the Bluetooth device. You can try “0000” as the passcode. If that doesn’t work, consult the Bluetooth device’s documentation.

The pairing and connection status will appear below the hands-free headset or car kit name in the Bluetooth devices list. When the other Bluetooth hands-free headset or car kit is connected to your phone, the Bluetooth connected icon will appear in the status bar. You can now start using the hands-free headset or car kit to make and/or receive phone calls. If you pair with a second headset while connected to the first, the first headset will be disconnected. To switch the connection back to the first headset, you must manually select that headset again in the Bluetooth devices list.

To disconnect a Bluetooth hands-free headset or car kit, follow these steps:

1. Press HOME, then press MENU, and then touch Settings.
2. Touch Wireless controls > Bluetooth settings.
3. Navigate to the Bluetooth devices section, then touch and hold the connected hands-free headset or car kit.
4. Touch Disconnect.
