BLUETOOTH wireless technology BLUETOOTH wireless technology is a shortrange wireless technology linking digital devices, such as personal computers and digital still cameras. Using the BLUETOOTH wireless technology, you can operate the units involved within a range of about 10 meters. The BLUETOOTH wireless technology is commonly used between two devices, but a single device can be connected to multiple devices. 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. You can use the technology with one BLUETOOTH device in your bag or pocket. BLUETOOTH wireless technology is a global standard supported by thousands of companies. These companies produce products that meet the global standard. Supported BLUETOOTH version and profiles Profile refers to a standard set of capabilities for various BLUETOOTH product capabilities. See "Specifications" (page 30) for details on the supported BLUETOOTH version and profiles. Note To use a BLUETOOTH device connected to this system, the device must support the same profile as this system. Note that the functions of the BLUETOOTH device may be different depending on the specifications of the device, even if it has the same profile as this system. Because of the properties of BLUETOOTH wireless technology, playback on this system is slightly delayed compared with audio playback on the transmitting device. Effective communication range BLUETOOTH devices should be used within approximately 10 meters (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 (IEEE802.11b/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 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, and in airplanes Near automatic doors or fire alarms Note 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. Precautions/Specifications 29GB
