Precautions
Preparing the unit
Connect the unit and S-AIR main unit to listen to sound from the S-AIR main unit.
Notes on use of the S-AIR product
• As the S-AIR product transmits sound by radio waves,
sound may skip when radio waves are obstructed.
This is acharacteristic of radio waves and is not a
malfunction.
•
As the $-AIR product transmits sound by radio waves,
equipment that generates electromagnetic energy,
such
as amicrowave oven, may interfere with sound
transmission.
• As the $-AIR product uses the radio waves that share
the same frequency as
other wireless systems, such
as wireless LAN or Bluetooth devices. interference or
poor transmission may result. In this case, take the
following sleps:
-Do not install the S-AIR product near other wireless
systems.
-Do not use the S-AIR product and the other wireless
systems at the same time.
•The transmission distance differs
depending on
the usage environment. Find alocation where
transmission between the unit and the S-AIR main
unit
is most effective, and install the unit and the S-
AIR main unit there.
On safety
•Completely disconnect the power cord (mains
lead) from the wall socket (mains)
if it is not going
to be used for an extended period of time. When
unplugging the unit, always grip the plug. Never pull
the cord itself.
•Should any solid object
or liquid get into the unit.
unplug the unit, and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it again.
•The
AC power cord can be changed only by aqualified
service facility.
On placement
•Do not place the unit in an inclined position or in
locations that are extremely hot, cold, dusty. dirty.
or
humid or lacking adequate vcntilation, or subject to
vibration, direct sunlight
or abright light.
•
Be careful when placing the unit on surfaccs that have
been specially treated (for example, with wax, oil,
polish) as staining or discoloration of the surface may
result.
On heat buildup
•Heat buildup on the unit during operation is normal
and
is not cause for alarm.
•Do not touch the cabinet
if it has been used
continuously at ahigh volume because the cabinet
may have become hot.
•Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.
On the speaker system
This speaker system is not magnetically shielded, and
the picture on nearby TV sets may become magnetically
distorted. In this situation, turn off the TV, wait about
15 to 30 minutes. and turn it back on.
Ifthere
is no improvement, move the unit far away from
the
TV.
Cleaning the cabinet
Clean this unit with asoft dry cloth. Do not use any
type
of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such
as thinner, benzine, or alcohol.
Wall socket
Insert the supplied wireless transceiver (EZW-RTl 0)
se~ur~ into the EZW-RTl 0 slot on the rear of the
umt. f't
Check the orientation of the T mark when inserting
the supplied wireless transceiver (EZW-RTIO).
Failure to
do so may result in damage to the unit.
Set the S-AIR 10 of the unit to the same S-AIR 10 as
the $-AIR main unit to be connected. m
For details on setting the S-AIR 10 of the S-AIR
main unit, refer to the
Operating Instructions
supplied with the S-AIR main unit.
Connect the power cord to awall socket. [!)
If the plug does not fit the wall socket, detach the
supplied plug adaptor (only for models equipped
with an adaptor).
4 Pressl/(!) [I] to turn on the unit. Ii]
5 Operate the S-AIR main unit to turn on the $-AIR
function.
For details on turning on the S-AIR function. refer to
the Operating Instructions supplied with the S-AIR
main unit.
Once the connection is established, the S-AIR
indicator
I1Ql on the front of the unit lights up
and "LINKED" appears in the display for about 2
seconds.
If you cannot connect to the S-AIR main unit
It is easy to set the same S-AIR 10 for the unit and S-
AIR main unit to establish the connection.
However.
if aneighbor has an S-AIR main unit with the
same S-AIR
10 as your S-AIR main unit. you may be
able
to hear the audio transmitted from your neighbor's
S-AIR main unit on your system. To prevent this, you
can identify the unit with aspecific S-AIR main unit by
performing the pairingoperation.
When you perform pairing
Before pairing, the connection is established by the S-
AIR 10 (example).
4Press
the PAIRING button on the rear of the unit
using a pointed object.
When pairing is performed. the S-AIR indicator 1121
flashes and the display changes as follows:
"PAIRING"
~ "COMPLETE"
To cancel pairing, change the S-AIR IDs
of the unit
and the S-AIR main unit to different S-AIR IDs.
To stop the pairing operation midway, press the
PAIRING bullon again.
Notes
-Make ~ure to turn offthe unit when inserting or removing the
~upplied wireless transceiver (EZW-RTlO). Failure to do ~o may
re~ult in damage to the unit.
•Do
notlouch the terminals of the ~upplied wirele~~ transceiver
(EZW·RTlO).
• Do not insert any device other than the ~upplied wireless
transceiver (EZW-RTIO) into the EZW·RTJO ~IOI.
S-AIR (Sony Audio Interactive Radio
frequency)
Recent times have seen the rapid spread of DVD
media, Digital Broadcasting.
and other high-quality
media.
To ensure that
the subtle nuances of these high-
quality media are
transmiued with no deterioration,
Sony has developed atechnology called US_AIR"
for the radio transmission of digital audio signals
with
no compression, and has incorporated this
technology into
the EZW·RTIO.
This technology Iransfers digital audio signals with
no compression using the 2.4 GHz band range of ISM
band (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical band), such
as wireless LANs and B!uetooth applications.
