For best performance, we recommend that your phone and the Bluetooth™ VAIO
notebook you are communicating with are within a range of 10 metres. In some
situations, avoiding solid objects in-between your phone and the VAIO notebook may
improve the connection.
The passkey can contain less than four digits. For security reasons, it is recommended
that you use at least four digits.
The passkey can contain up to 16 digits.
The Bluetooth™ wireless technology has an authentification function which allows you
to make sure that you are communicating with the correct device. With the
authentification function, you can prevent any anonymous Bluetooth™ device from
accessing your own device.
The first time two Bluetooth™ devices communicate, a common passkey should be
determined for both devices to be registered. Once a device is registered, there is no
need to reenter the passkey. However, you can also change it each time you connect.
You can also set up your device so that you do not have to enter any passkey to be
connected.
You can change your settings in order not to be discovered by other Bluetooth™
devices or you can set a limited number of devices entitled to discover your own device.
