About the Bluetooth 
wireless technology
Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-
range wireless technology that enables 
wireless data communication between 
digital devices. Bluetooth wireless 
technology operates within a range of about 
10 meters (33 feet).
You do not need wires to get connected as 
you do with a USB connection, and you do 
not need to place the devices face to face as 
you do with wireless infrared technology.
Bluetooth wireless technology is a global 
standard supported by thousands of 
companies. These companies produce 
products that meet the global standard.
Check the websites for the latest 
information about compatible Bluetooth 
devices with URLs listed under “About 
support information” (page 127).

the same profile as this receiver. Even if the 
device supports the same profile, the functions 
may differ depending on the specifications of 
the Bluetooth device.
• The audio playback on this receiver may be 
delayed from that on the Bluetooth device 
because of the characteristics of the Bluetooth 
wireless technology.

devices register with each other 
beforehand. Once a pairing operation is 
performed, it does not need to be performed 
again.
