Pair Bluetooth Devices

The Bluetooth pairing process allows you to establish trusted connections between your device and another Bluetooth device.

Pairing between two Bluetooth devices is a one-time process. Once a pairing is created, the devices continue to recognize their partnership and exchange information without having to re-enter a passcode.

1.From a Home screen, tap Apps > Settings > CONNECTIONS tab.

3.Make sure that the target device is discoverable so that your device can find it. Refer to the instructions that came with the device to find out how to set it to discoverable mode.

5.When you see the name of the target device displayed in the Bluetooth devices section, tap the name. Your tablet then automatically tries to pair with the target device. If automatic pairing fails, enter the passcode supplied with the target device.

Note: Due to different specifications and features of other Bluetooth-compatible devices, display and operations may be different, and functions such as transfer or exchange may not be possible with all Bluetooth-compatible devices.

Delete a Paired Device (Unpair)

When you unpair from a Bluetooth device, the two devices no longer recognize each other. To connect again, you must pair the devices.

1.From a Home screen, tap Apps > Settings > CONNECTIONS tab.

Settings next to the previously paired device, and then tap Unpair to delete the paired device.
