<desc>Pair Bluetooth devices.</desc>
</info>
<title>Connect your computer to a Bluetooth device</title>
<p>Before you can use a Bluetooth device like a mouse or a headset, you first
need to connect your computer to the device. This is also called
<em>pairing</em> the Bluetooth devices.</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui> overview and
start typing <gui>Bluetooth</gui>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Click on <gui>Bluetooth</gui> to open the panel.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Make sure Bluetooth is enabled: the switch at the top should be set to
<gui>ON</gui>. With the panel open and the switch <gui>ON</gui>, your
computer will begin searching for devices.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Make the other Bluetooth device
<link xref="bluetooth-visibility">discoverable or visible</link> and
place it within 5-10 meters (about 16-33 feet) of your computer.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Click the device in the <gui>Devices</gui> list. The panel for the
device will open.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>If required, confirm the PIN on your other device. The device should
show you the PIN you see on your computer screen. Confirm the PIN on the
device (you may need to click <gui>Pair</gui> or <gui>Confirm</gui>),
then click <gui>Confirm</gui> on the computer.</p>
<p>You need to finish your entry within about 20 seconds on most devices,
or the connection will not be completed. If that happens, return to the
device list and start again.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>The entry for the device in the <gui>Devices</gui> list will show a
<gui>Connected</gui> status.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>To edit the device, click on it in the <gui>Device</gui> list. You
will see a panel specific to the device. It may display additional
options applicable to the type of device to which you are connecting.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Close the panel once you have changed the settings.</p>
</item>

<p>When one or more Bluetooth devices are connected, the Bluetooth icon
appears in the system status area.</p>
