• For you to use the Bluetooth function, 
the Bluetooth device to be connected 
must support the same profile as this 
system. Even if the device supports the 
same profile, the functions may differ 
because of the specifications of the 
Bluetooth device.
• The audio playback on this system may 
be delayed from that on the Bluetooth 
device because of the characteristics of 
the Bluetooth wireless technology.
Effective communication 
range
Bluetooth devices should be used within 
approximately 10 meters (33 feet) 
(unobstructed distance) of each other. 
The effective communication range may 
become shorter under the following 
conditions.
• When a person, metal object, wall or 
other obstruction is between the 
devices with a Bluetooth connection
• Locations where a wireless LAN is 
installed
• Around microwave ovens that are in 
use
• Locations where other electromagnetic 
waves occur
Effects of other devices
Bluetooth devices and wireless LAN 
(IEEE 802.11b/g) use the same frequency 
band (2.4 GHz). When using your 
Bluetooth device near a device with 
wireless LAN capability, electromagnetic 
interference may occur.
This could result in lower data transfer 
rates, noise, or inability to connect. If 
this happens, try the following remedies:
• Try connecting this system and 
Bluetooth mobile phone or Bluetooth 
device when you are at least 10 meters 
(33 feet) away from the wireless LAN 
equipment.
• Turn off the power to the wireless LAN 
equipment when using your Bluetooth 
device within 10 meters.
Effects on other devices
The radio waves broadcast by this 
system may interfere with the operation 
of some medical devices. Since this 
interference may result in malfunction, 
always turn off the power on this system, 
Bluetooth mobile phone and Bluetooth 
device in the following locations:
• In hospitals, on trains, in airplanes, at 
gas stations, and any place where 
flammable gasses may be present
• Near automatic doors or fire alarms
• This system supports security functions that 
comply with the Bluetooth specification as a 
means of ensuring security during 
communication using Bluetooth technology. 
However, this security may be insufficient 
depending on the setting contents and other 
factors, so always be careful when 
performing communication using Bluetooth 
technology.
• Sony cannot be held liable in any way for 
damages or other loss resulting from 
information leaks during communication 
using Bluetooth technology.
• Bluetooth communication is not necessarily 
guaranteed with all Bluetooth devices that 
have the same profile as this system.
• Bluetooth devices connected with this 
system must comply with the Bluetooth 
specification prescribed by the Bluetooth 
SIG, Inc., and must be certified to comply. 
However, even when a device complies with 
the Bluetooth specification, there may be 
cases where the characteristics or 
specifications of the Bluetooth device make 
it impossible to connect, or may result in
