Your i580 phone is a Bluetooth device. Bluetooth 
devices create seamless voice and data 
connections with other Bluetooth devices, such as 
another Bluetooth phone, a Bluetooth pen, 
headset, or desktop adapter. These connections 
are made wirelessly. 
You can use your i580 phone to send information 
such as Contacts entries, Datebook events, and 
pictures to another Bluetooth device. 
Devices must be within 32 feet (10 meters) of your 
phone to be recognized.
Note: This measurement represents optimal 
conditions. Actual conditions may require 
you to position your phone closer.
You can only connect your phone to one device at 
a time.

Access Settings
A Bluetooth device can have either Automatic or 
Ask security access. The first time a Bluetooth 
device connects to your i580 phone, you must 
grant the device permission to connect. You can 
then change the access setting of the device to 
either Automatic or Ask.
If you set a device to Automatic, then that device 
can connect automatically to your phone when it is 
in range. If you set a device to Ask, then that 
device must request permission before it can 
connect to your phone.
Devices are automatically granted permission 
during the 10 seconds after bonding. For more 
information about bonding, see “Bluetooth
®
 Bonds” 
on page 152.
The default for hands free devices, such as 
Bluetooth headsets, is Automatic.
