BLUETOOTH wireless technology
Supported BLUETOOTH version and profiles
Profile refers to a standard set of functions for various BLUETOOTH 
product features. Refer to “Specifications” (page 27) for the 
BLUETOOTH version and profiles supported by this system. 
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.
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 
devices with a BLUETOOTH connection
Locations where a wireless LAN is installed
Around microwave ovens that are in use
Locations where other electromagnetic waves are generated
Effects of other devices
BLUETOOTH devices and wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11b/g) equipment 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:
Connect 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 (33 feet).
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 to this system, 
BLUETOOTH mobile phone and BLUETOOTH device in the following 
locations:
In hospitals, on trains or 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 settings and other factors. So 
always be careful when performing communication using BLUETOOTH 
technology.
Sony shall not 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 different control methods, 
display, or operation.
Noise may occur or the audio may cut off, depending on the 
BLUETOOTH device connected with this system, the communications 
environment, or surrounding conditions.
