CHAPTER 8: Bluetooth on Your DROID
191
TIP: Bluetooth is an added drain on your
battery. If you don’t plan on using
Bluetooth for a period of time, think
about turning the switch back to Off.
Pairing with a Bluetooth Device
Your primary uses for Bluetooth might be with Bluetooth headphones, Bluetooth stereo
adapters, or a Bluetooth headset. Any Bluetooth headphones should work well with your
DROID. To start using any Bluetooth device, you need to first pair (connect) it with your
DROID.
Pairing with a Headset or Any Bluetooth Device
As soon as you turn Bluetooth On, the DROID will begin to search for any nearby
Bluetooth device—like a Bluetooth headset or stereo adapter (see Figure 8–1). For the
DROID to find your Bluetooth device, you need to put that device into “pairing mode.”
Read the instructions that came with your headset carefully—usually there are a
combination of buttons to push to achieve this.
TIP: Some headsets require you to press and hold a button for five seconds until you see a series
of flashing blue or red/blue lights. Some accessories automatically start up in pairing mode.
Once the DROID detects the Bluetooth device, it will attempt to automatically pair with
it. If pairing takes place automatically, there is nothing more for you to do.
