 “Made for iPod” and “Made for iPhone” mean that

an electronic accessory has been designed to

connect specifically to iPod or iPhone,

respectively, and has been certified by the

developer to meet Apple performance standards.

Apple is not responsible for the operation of this

device or its compliance with safety and

regulatory standards. Please note that the use of

this accessory with iPod or iPhone may affect

wireless performance.

What is BLUETOOTH technology?

 BLUETOOTH wireless technology is a short-range

wireless technology that enables wireless data

communication between digital devices, such as

a cellular phone and a headset. BLUETOOTH

wireless technology operates within a range of

about 10 m (33 ft). Connecting two devices is

common, but some devices can be connected to

multiple devices at the same time.

 You do not need to use a cable for connection

since BLUETOOTH technology is a wireless

technology, neither is it necessary for the devices

to face one another, such is the case with infrared

technology. For example, you can use such a

device in a bag or pocket.

 BLUETOOTH technology is an international

standard supported by millions of companies all

over the world, and employed by various

companies worldwide.

On BLUETOOTH communication

 BLUETOOTH wireless technology operates within

a range of about 10 m (33 ft).

Maximum communication range may vary

depending on obstacles (person, metal, wall, etc.)

or electromagnetic environment.

 The following conditions may affect the sensitivity

of BLUETOOTH communication.

 There is an obstacle such as a person, metal, or

wall between this unit and BLUETOOTH device.

 A device using 2.4 GHz frequency, such as a

wireless LAN device, cordless telephone, or

microwave oven, is in use near this unit.

 Because BLUETOOTH devices and wireless LAN

(IEEE802.11b/g) use the same frequency,

microwave interference may occur and result in

communication speed deterioration, noise, or

invalid connection if this unit is used near a

wireless LAN device. In such as case, perform the

following.

 Use this unit at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the

wireless LAN device.

 If this unit is used within 10 m (33 ft) of a

wireless LAN device, turn off the wireless LAN

device.

 Install this unit and BLUETOOTH device as near

to each other as possible.

 Microwaves emitting from a BLUETOOTH device

may affect the operation of electronic medical

devices. Turn off this unit and other BLUETOOTH

devices in the following locations, as it may cause

an accident.

 where inflammable gas is present, in a hospital,

train, airplane, or petrol station

 near automatic doors or a fire alarm

 This unit supports security capabilities that

comply with the BLUETOOTH standard to provide

a secure connection when the BLUETOOTH

wireless technology is used, but security may not

be enough depending on the setting. Be careful

when communicating using BLUETOOTH wireless

technology.

 We do not take any responsibility for the leakage

of information during BLUETOOTH

communication.

 Connection with all BLUETOOTH devices cannot

be guaranteed.

 A device featuring BLUETOOTH function is

required to conform to the BLUETOOTH

standard specified by BLUETOOTH SIG, and be

authenticated.

 Even if the connected device conforms to the

above mentioned BLUETOOTH standard, some

devices may not be connected or work

correctly, depending on the features or

specifications of the device.

 While talking on the phone hands free, noise

may occur, depending on the device or

communication environment.

 Depending on the device to be connected, it may

require some time to start communication.

Others

 Using the BLUETOOTH device may not function on

cellular phones, depending on radio wave

conditions and location where the equipment is

being used.

 If you experience discomfort after using the

BLUETOOTH device, stop using the BLUETOOTH

device immediately. Should any problem persist,

consult your nearest Sony dealer.

If you have any questions or problems concerning

your unit that are not covered in this manual,

consult your nearest Sony dealer.
