Technology
Bluetooth
®
wireless technology
establishes a wireless link between two
devices, such as your phone and the
c550. The first time you use two devices
together you must “pair” them by
establishing a relationship using a PIN/
passkey. After the initial pairing, the two
devices can connect automatically each
time you turn them on.
NOTE: You might have to set your
phone to connect automatically when
the c550 is turned on.
Pairing Your Phone

c550 must be turned on and be within 10
meters of each other.
Initiate pairing from your c550 or from
your phone. Refer to your phone’s
documentation.

1. Enable the phone’s Bluetooth
component. This might be in a
menu called Settings, Bluetooth,
Connections, or Hands-free.

devices. This might be located in a
menu called Bluetooth, Connections,
or Hands-free.
