Bond Failed:

Your phone may display this error when you try to
establish a bond connection between your
module and another device.
The reason for this error is that your module uses
a small amount of memory to establish
connections. If your device list is full, your module
does not have enough memory to use.
To resolve the error, delete one or more items
from your device list (refer to “Deleting a Device
in Your Device List” on page 21). Then try the
connection again from the beginning.
