On Bluetooth Communication - Sony HT-X8500 Operating Instructions Manual

On BLUETOOTH
Communication
• BLUETOOTH devices should be used
within approximately 10 meters
(33 feet) (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/n) 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 Sound Bar at least 10 meters
(33 feet) away from the wireless LAN
device.
– Turn off the power to the wireless
LAN device when using your
BLUETOOTH device within 10 meters
(33 feet).
– Install this Sound Bar and
BLUETOOTH device as closer to each
other as possible.
• The radio waves broadcast by this
Sound Bar may interfere with the
operation of some medical devices.
Since this interference may result in
malfunction, always turn off the power
on this Sound Bar and BLUETOOTH
device in the following locations:
40
GB
– 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 Sound Bar 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 contents 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 Sound Bar.
• BLUETOOTH devices connected with
this Sound Bar 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 Sound Bar,
the communications environment, or
surrounding conditions.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your Sound Bar, please
consult your nearest Sony dealer.
