Configure A Bluetooth Hands Free Headset

Configure a Bluetooth Hands Free Headset


The term "Bluetooth" refers to a wireless way to communicate using your cellphone. A phone and a headset are connected to each other via a strong, secure short range radio signal called a "Bluetooth" signal. This allows people to talk on their phones while still having complete use of both of their hands. This is ideal for situations like driving, where taking a call can be dangerous.


Instructions


1. Go into the "Bluetooth" settings menu on your cell phone. On most cell phones, this can be found by selecting the "Settings" icon in your phone's main menu. If your phone is Bluetooth compatible, a menu selection with the word "Bluetooth" in it will appear. Select this by highlighting it with the arrow keys on your phone and pressing the "OK" or "Enter" (whichever your model of phone has) button.


2. Put your Bluetooth Hands Free Headset in "Discovery" mode. This will send out a short range Bluetooth signal to any compatible devices within range. To do this, press and hold the button located on the side of your headset until the headset's indicator light glows a solid color.


3. Put your cell phone in "Discovery" mode. From the Bluetooth menu on your phone, this will search for any Bluetooth devices in the immediate area; in this case, your Bluetooth Hands Free Headset.


4. Select your Bluetooth Hands Free Headset from the list of compatible devices your phone is able to locate. Unless you are standing very near to another Bluetooth device, your headset will be the only device it finds. Select it by pressing the "OK" or "Enter" button on your phone. Your phone and your headset are now connected and can be used concurrently.
