Connect Bluetooth headphones
Link a wireless device to the computer, then disconnect it.
Step by step
- Click the Wi-Fi / sound icons, at the bottom right. At the very bottom right of the screen, just left of the date and time, there are two small icons: the Wi-Fi waves and a speaker. Click on them (they work as one button): a panel called "Quick settings" opens above them.
- Click the Bluetooth › arrow. In the Quick settings panel, the second tile (the Bluetooth symbol) is split in two, like the Wi-Fi one. Click the small › arrow at its right end: the list of Bluetooth devices appears.
- Choose "Headphones". In the list of devices, click "Headphones" (the fourth line). A blue "Connect" button appears under its name.
- Click "Connect". Click the blue "Connect" button under the name "Headphones". It says "Connecting…" for a moment.
- Disconnect it. The headphones now say "Connected". Click the "Disconnect" button under their name to release them.

Practice it where nothing can break
SafePC works like a real computer, but nothing you do goes anywhere. Try every button, make mistakes and start again.
