Notes on Using the Bluetooth(R) Function
Use of Bluetooth function may be restricted by local regulations in some countries or regions.
The Bluetooth function may not work with some devices, depending on the manufacturer or the
software version employed by the manufacturer. Check the system requirements of the
Bluetooth device before purchasing.
For information on Bluetooth devices supported by Sony tablet devices, visit the support
website.
Some Bluetooth devices require authentication (pairing) before establishing a connection with
another device.
Perform the authentication process before connecting to such a device.
Bluetooth devices work on the 2.4 GHz band, which is used by a variety of devices. Bluetooth
devices use technology to minimize radio interference from other devices that use the same
band. However, radio interference may still cause slower data transfer speeds, reduce
communications range or cause communications failure.
Data transfer speed and communications range may vary depending on the following
conditions:
Distance between communicating devices
Presence of obstacles between devices
Surrounding environment that includes presence of walls and materials of such walls
Device configuration
Software in use
Signal conditions
Communications may be cut off depending on signal conditions.
Interference may occur if both the Bluetooth function and the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi function are
enabled. That will result in slower data transfer speeds or other problems.
Large files may occasionally be corrupted during continuous transfer due to limitations of the
Bluetooth standard and ambient electromagnetic interference.
Connecting multiple Bluetooth devices to your tablet device may cause channel congestion,
resulting in poor device performance. This is normal with Bluetooth technology and does not
indicate a malfunction.
Video and audio may not be synchronized if you play videos on your tablet device with audio
output from a connected Bluetooth device. This is a frequent occurrence with Bluetooth
technology and does not indicate a malfunction.
All Bluetooth devices must be certified through procedures stipulated by Bluetooth SIG to
ensure that they comply with the Bluetooth standard. Even if the Bluetooth standard is complied
with, individual device performance, specifications, and operation procedures can vary.
Output sound may not be switched between a Bluetooth audio device and the built-in speaker
when you connect or disconnect the device while an app such as game is running. If that
occurs, exit the app and restart the device. Or switch the sound before starting the app.
Sound of apps such as games may be delayed when heard from Bluetooth audio devices
connected to your tablet device. If that occurs, output sound from the built-in speaker or
connect an audio device to the headphone jack of your tablet device to hear the sound.
If you turn off a Bluetooth audio device connected to your tablet device while an app such as a
game is running, the app may no-longer work properly. If that occurs, exit the app and restart
your tablet device.
To exchange files with Bluetooth devices, you need to download applications other than those
