Pairing with another Bluetooth™ device
When you pair your device with another device, you can, for example, connect your
device to a Bluetooth™ headset or a Bluetooth™ car kit and use these other devices to
make and receive calls.
Once you have paired your device with a Bluetooth™ device, your device will remember
this pairing. When pairing your device with a Bluetooth™ device, you may need to enter
a passcode. Your device will automatically try the generic passcode 0000. If this does
not work, refer to the user guide for your Bluetooth™ device to get the device passcode.
You do not need to re-enter the passcode the next time you connect to a paired
Bluetooth™ device.
Some Bluetooth™ devices, for example, most Bluetooth™ headsets, require you to both
pair and connect with the other device.

one Bluetooth™ profile at the same time.
