Open the paired devices tab.

Before pairing, decide on your own passcode (1-16 digits),

and agree with the user of the other device to use the same

code. Devices that do not have a user interface have a fixed

passcode. You need the passcode only when you connect the

devices for the first time. After pairing, it is possible to

authorise the connection. Pairing and authorising the

connection makes connecting quicker and easier, as you do

not have to accept the connection between paired devices

every time you establish a connection.
The passcode for remote SIM access must have 16 digits.
In remote SIM mode you can use your device's SIM card with

compatible accessories.
When the wireless device is in the remote SIM mode, you can

only use a compatible connected accessory, such as a car kit,

to make or receive calls.
Your wireless device will not make any calls, except to the

emergency numbers programmed into your device, while in

this mode.
To make calls, you must first leave the remote SIM mode. If

the device has been locked, enter the lock code to unlock it

first.

requests from the other device separately every time, select
