Note that the home audio system should be reset to the factory default for this connection. All BLUETOOTH device
registration (pairing) information is deleted. To use the BLUETOOTH connection after that, delete all pairing information
on the PC, and then set pairing again.
This section describes how to connect a Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 PC and the home audio system wirelessly, then how
to connect the home audio system to a wireless router, using the PC.
Do the following before starting.
Disconnect the LAN cable (not supplied) from the home audio system.
Place the home audio system closer to the wireless router.

Wi-Fi network. The encryption key restricts access to devices on a network. It is used to make more secure
communication between the devices connected to wireless routers and access points.
Have the Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password (encryption key) of the wireless router available for
