Bluetooth pairing is initiated by turning both devices on, making them discoverable, and possibly entering a pairing code. Problems during pairing can often be fixed by restarting devices, adjusting settings, or moving devices closer together.
To pair Bluetooth devices, start by ensuring both devices are on and discoverable. Go to your mobile device's Bluetooth settings and select the device you want to pair with. A pairing code may be required, which should appear on one of the devices' screens. Confirm the code on both devices to complete the pairing process. If you encounter issues, try restarting your phone, turning off any interfering technologies like WiFi, or disabling and re-enabling Bluetooth.
Troubleshooting Tips

Bluetooth pairing is a standardized process for creating a wireless connection between devices. If issues arise during the pairing process, simple troubleshooting actions such as restarting the devices or temporarily disabling other wireless connections can help resolve the problems.
