Help Guide How to Use WALKMAN NWZ-ZX1 Back Back to Top Notes on the Bluetooth function Print Bluetooth wireless technology allows connection at distance of up to about 10 meters. However, the effective range may vary depending on obstructions (people, metals, wall, etc.) or signal status. The Bluetooth antenna (aerial) is built into your Walkman. You can improve the sensitivity of Bluetooth communication by turning the built-in Bluetooth antenna (aerial) in the direction of the connected Bluetooth device. The communication distance shortens if there are obstructions between the connected device and the Walkman. The following conditions may cause noise, breakup of sound or changes in playback speed. When using inside a metal bag. When using inside a backpack or shoulder bag. When using in an area with a wireless LAN, when devices such as microwave ovens, mobile phones and mobile gaming devices with a communication function are in use nearby, or in other areas where microwaves are being emitted. When the antenna (aerial) built into your Walkman is covered by your hand or blocked by people in situations such as a crowded train. Because Bluetooth and wireless LAN (IEEE802.11b/g) devices use the same frequency (2.4 GHz), signal interference may occur, resulting in communication speed decrease, noise, or inability to connect, if Bluetooth communications are used near a wireless LAN device. In such cases, take the following measures. Perform Bluetooth communications at least 10 meters away from the wireless LAN device when connecting your Walkman and a Bluetooth device. Place your Walkman and the Bluetooth device as close together as possible. Turn off the wireless LAN device when performing Bluetooth communications within about 10 meters of a wireless LAN device. Due to a characteristic of Bluetooth wireless technology, the sound played on the receiving Bluetooth audio device lags slightly behind the sound of the sending device. Radio waves emitting from a Bluetooth device may affect the operation of equipment such as electronic medical devices. Turn off your Walkman and other Bluetooth devices in the following locations, as failure to do so may cause an accident. In hospitals, near priority seats on trains, in airplanes, in places such as gasoline stations where flammable gases are present, near automatic doors or fire alarms Your Walkman supports security functions that comply with the Bluetooth standard to provide a secure connection when Bluetooth technology is used, but security may not be sufficient depending on the settings. Be careful when connecting using Bluetooth technology. 166

Notes on the Bluetooth function
Bluetooth wireless technology allows connection at distance of up to about 10 meters. However, the effective range
may vary depending on obstructions (people, metals, wall, etc.) or signal status.
The Bluetooth antenna (aerial) is built into your Walkman. You can improve the sensitivity of Bluetooth
communication by turning the built-in Bluetooth antenna (aerial) in the direction of the connected Bluetooth device.
The communication distance shortens if there are obstructions between the connected device and the Walkman.
The following conditions may cause noise, breakup of sound or changes in playback speed.
When using inside a metal bag.
When using inside a backpack or shoulder bag.
When using in an area with a wireless LAN, when devices such as microwave ovens, mobile phones and mobile gaming
devices with a communication function are in use nearby, or in other areas where microwaves are being emitted.
When the antenna (aerial) built into your Walkman is covered by your hand or blocked by people in situations such as a
crowded train.
Because Bluetooth and wireless LAN (IEEE802.11b/g) devices use the same frequency (2.4 GHz), signal
interference may occur, resulting in communication speed decrease, noise, or inability to connect, if Bluetooth
communications are used near a wireless LAN device. In such cases, take the following measures.
Perform Bluetooth communications at least 10 meters away from the wireless LAN device when connecting your Walkman
and a Bluetooth device.
Place your Walkman and the Bluetooth device as close together as possible.
Turn off the wireless LAN device when performing Bluetooth communications within about 10 meters of a wireless LAN

Due to a characteristic of Bluetooth wireless technology, the sound played on the receiving Bluetooth audio device
lags slightly behind the sound of the sending device.
