Yamaha RX-V3900 User Manual

You can connect a Yamaha Bluetooth wireless audio receiver (such as YBA-10, sold separately) to the DOCK terminal of 
this unit and enjoy the music contents stored in your Bluetooth component (such as a portable music player) without 
wiring between this unit and the Bluetooth component. You need to perform “pairing” the connected Bluetooth receiver 
and your Bluetooth component in advance.
For details about status messages displayed in the front panel display and in the GUI screen, see “Bluetooth” (page 135).

This unit supports A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) Bluetooth profile. 

Pairing must be performed when using a Bluetooth 
component with the Bluetooth receiver connected to this 
unit for the first time or if the pairing data has been 
deleted. “Pairing” refers to the operation of registering a 
Bluetooth component for Bluetooth communications.

• You need the pairing operation only for the first time when you 

use the Bluetooth component with the Bluetooth receiver.

component with which Bluetooth communications are to be 
established. If necessary, refer to the other component’s 
operating instructions.

There are two pairing methods: pairing by using “Pairing” 
in the GUI menu and quick pairing.
