apparatus with newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc. Do not place
the naked flame sources such as lighted candles on the apparatus.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this
apparatus to dripping or splashing, and do not place objects filled
with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus.
Do not install the appliance in a confined space, such as a bookcase
or built-in cabinet.
Do not expose batteries or apparatus with battery installed to an
excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
As the main plug is used to disconnect the system from the mains,
connect the system to an easily accessible AC outlet. Should you
notice an abnormality in the system, disconnect the main plug from
AC outlet immediately.
The system is not disconnected from the mains as long as it is

What is BLUETOOTH wireless
technology?
BLUETOOTH wireless technology is a short-range wireless technology
that enables wireless data communication between digital devices,
such as a computer and digital camera. BLUETOOTH wireless
technology operates within a range of about 10 m.
Connecting two devices as necessary is common, but some devices
can be connected to multiple devices at the same time.
GB
You do not need to use a cable for connection, nor 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
ES
pocket.
BLUETOOTH standard is an international standard supported by
thousands of companies all over the world, and employed by various
companies worldwide.
Maximum communication range
Maximum communication range may shorten under the following
conditions.
ē There is an obstacle such as a person, metal, or wall between the ˎ
system and BLUETOOTH device.
ē A wireless LAN device is in use near the system. ˎ
ē A microwave oven is in use near the system. ˎ
ē A device that generates electromagnetic radiation is in use near
ˎ
the system.
Interference from other devices
Because BLUETOOTH devices and wireless LAN (IEEE802.11b/g) use
the same frequency, microwave interference may occur and resulting
in communication speed deterioration, noise, or invalid connection if
the system is used near a wireless LAN device. In such a case,
perform the following.
ē Use the system at least 10 m away from the wireless LAN device. ˎ
ē If the system is used within 10 m of a wireless LAN device, turn ˎ
off the wireless LAN device.
Interference to other devices
Microwaves emitting from a BLUETOOTH device may affect the
operation of electronic medical devices. Turn off the system and
other BLUETOOTH devices in the following locations, as it may cause
an accident.
ē where inflammable gas is present, in a hospital, train, airplane, or ˎ
a gas station
ē near automatic doors or a fire alarm
ˎ
Notes
ˎ To be able to use the BLUETOOTH function, the BLUETOOTH device
ˎ
to be connected requires the same profile as the system's.
Note also that even if the same profile exists, devices may vary in
function depending on their specifications.
ˎ Due to the characteristic of BLUETOOTH wireless technology, the ˎ
sound played on the system is slightly delayed from the sound
played on the BLUETOOTH device during talking on the telephone
or listening to the music.
ˎ This system supports security capabilities that comply with the ˎ
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.
ˎ We do not take any responsibility for the leakage of information
ˎ
during BLUETOOTH communication.
ˎ A device featuring the BLUETOOTH function is required to conform ˎ
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.
ˎ Noise or sound skips may occur depending on the BLUETOOTH ˎ
device connected with the system, the communication
environment or the usage environment.
