On Bluetooth Communication - Sony HT-RT5 Operating Instructions Manual

On BLUETOOTH
Communication
• BLUETOOTH devices should be used within
approximately 10 meters (unobstructed
distance) of each other. The effective
communication range may become shorter
under the following conditions.
– When a person, metal object, wall or
other obstruction is between the devices
with a BLUETOOTH connection
– Locations where a wireless LAN is
installed
– Around microwave ovens that are in use
– Locations where other electromagnetic
waves occur
• BLUETOOTH devices and wireless LAN
(IEEE 802.11b/g) use the same frequency
band (2.4 GHz). When using your
BLUETOOTH device near a device with
wireless LAN capability, electromagnetic
interference may occur. This could result in
lower data transfer rates, noise, or inability
to connect. If this happens, try the
following remedies:
– Use this system at least 10 meters away
from the wireless LAN device.
– Turn off the power to the wireless LAN
device when using your BLUETOOTH
device within 30 meters.
– Install this system and BLUETOOTH device
as closer to each other as possible.
• The radio waves broadcast by this system
may interfere with the operation of some
medical devices. Since this interference
may result in malfunction, always turn off
the power on this system and BLUETOOTH
device in the following locations:
– In hospitals, on trains, in airplanes, at gas
stations, and any place where flammable
gasses may be present
– Near automatic doors or fire alarms
• This system supports security functions
that comply with the BLUETOOTH
specification to ensure secure connection
during communication using BLUETOOTH
technology. However, this security may be
insufficient depending on the setting
content and other factors, so always be
careful when performing communication
using BLUETOOTH technology.
• Sony cannot be held liable in any way for
damages or other loss resulting from
information leaks during communication
using BLUETOOTH technology.
• BLUETOOTH communication is not
necessarily guaranteed with all
BLUETOOTH devices that have the same
profile as this system.
• BLUETOOTH devices connected with this
system must comply with the BLUETOOTH
specification prescribed by the Bluetooth
SIG, Inc., and must be certified to comply.
However, even when a device complies
with the BLUETOOTH specification, there
may be cases where the characteristics or
specifications of the BLUETOOTH device
make it impossible to connect, or may
result in different control methods, display
or operation.
• Noise may occur or the audio may cut off
depending on the BLUETOOTH device
connected with this system, the
communications environment, or
surrounding conditions.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your system, please consult
your nearest Sony dealer.
