the same or similar names.
Using the BLUETOOTH function
You can listen to music from your “WALKMAN” or
BLUETOOTH device over a wireless connection.
Before using the BLUETOOTH function, perform
pairing to register your BLUETOOTH device.
The system supports registration and connection
of the BLUETOOTH device and NFC, which enables
data communication by just touching a specified
location. For details on NFC, see “Connecting by
one-touch action (NFC).”
What is pairing?
The BLUETOOTH devices to be connected must
be registered with each other beforehand. Pairing
is an operation of registering two devices. Once a
pairing operation is performed, it does not have
to be performed again. In the following cases,
however, a pairing operation must be performed
again:
ˎ
Pairing information was erased when the
BLUETOOTH device was repaired.
ˎ
You attempt to pair the system with more than
10 BLUETOOTH devices. This system can pair
with up to 9 BLUETOOTH devices. If you pair
another BLUETOOTH device after pairing with 9
devices was performed, pairing information of
the device that was connected with the system
first is overwritten with that of the new device.
ˎ
Pairing registration information of this system is
erased from the connected device.
ˎ
If you initialize the system or erase the
pairing history with the system, all the pairing
information will be erased.
