<title>Turn Bluetooth on or off</title>
<p>
You can turn <app>Bluetooth</app> on to send and receive files, but turn it off to conserve power.
</p>

<p>
To turn <app>Bluetooth</app> on, click the <app>Bluetooth</app> icon in the top bar, then toggle the <gui>Bluetooth</gui> switch so that it reads as <gui>ON</gui>.
</p>
<p>Many laptop computers have a hardware switch or key combination to turn
Bluetooth on and off. If the Bluetooth hardware is turned off, you will not
see a Bluetooth icon in the top bar. Look for a switch on your computer or
a key on your keyboard. The keyboard key is often accessed with the help of the
<key>Fn</key> key.</p>
<note style="tip"><p>If you are connecting to another <app>Bluetooth</app> device for the first time, set the <gui>Visibility</gui> switch to <gui>ON</gui>. This allows your device to be seen by other <app>Bluetooth</app> devices.</p></note>
<p>To turn <app>Bluetooth</app> off, change the <gui>Bluetooth</gui> switch to the <gui>OFF</gui> position.
