S-AIR (Sony Audio
Interactive Radio frequency)
Recent times have seen the rapid
spread of DVD media, Digital
Broadcasting, and other high-
quality media.
To ensure that the subtle nuances of
these high-quality media are
transmitted with no deterioration,
Sony has developed a technology
called “S-AIR” for the radio
transmission of digital audio signals
with no compression, and has
incorporated this technology into
the EZW-RT10A.
This technology transfers digital
audio signals with no compression
using the 2.4 GHz band range of
ISM band (Industrial, Scientific, and
Medical band), such as wireless
LANs and Bluetooth applications.

equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the
following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an
outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an
experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
CAUTION
You are cautioned that any changes or
modifications not expressly approved
in this manual could void your
authority to operate this equipment.
For the wireless transceiver (EZW-RT10A)
This device complies with Part 15 of
the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) this
device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
This equipment must not be co-located
or operated in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
This equipment complies with FCC
radiation exposure limits set forth for
uncontrolled equipment and meets the

Features
The AIR-SA50R is an “S-AIR”
compatible product. It is also called the
“S-AIR sub unit.”
Connecting the S-AIR main unit
(transmitter product, hereafter called
“main unit”) with the S-AIR sub unit
(receiver product, hereafter called “sub
unit”) using “S-AIR” technology, you
can use each unit in a remote location.
For example, you can install this unit
in the bedroom, and then install the
main unit in the living room. You can
then listen to the music from the main
unit located in the living room with
this unit in the bedroom.
This unit is compatible with a main
unit with “MULTI SOURCE” mode,
and the coupling operation. The
coupling operation establishes a
connection between the sub unit and
optional S-AIR remote commander.
Precautions
Notes on use of the S-AIR
product
As the S-AIR product transmits
sound by radio waves, sound may
skip when radio waves are
obstructed. This is a characteristic of
radio waves and is not a
malfunction.
As the S-AIR product transmits
sound by radio waves, equipment
that generates electromagnetic
energy, such as a microwave oven,
may interfere with sound
transmission.
As the S-AIR product uses radio
waves that share the same frequency
as other wireless systems, such as
wireless LAN or Bluetooth devices,
interference or poor transmission
may result. In this case, take the
following steps:
Do not install the S-AIR product
near other wireless systems.
Do not use the S-AIR product
and other wireless systems at the
same time.
The transmission distance differs
depending on the usage
environment. Find a location where
transmission between the unit and
the S-AIR main unit is most
effective, and install the unit and the
S-AIR main unit there.
On safety
Operate the unit only on the power
sources specified in “Specifications”.
Completely disconnect the power
supply cord from the wall socket
(mains) if the unit is not going to be
used for an extended period of time.
When unplugging the unit, always
grip the plug. Never pull by the cord
itself.
Should any solid object or liquid get
into the unit, unplug the unit, and
have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it again.
The power supply cord can be
changed only by a qualified service
facility.
On placement
At low temperature, characters
change in the display becomes slow,
but it is not a malfunction.
Do not place the unit in an inclined
position or in locations that are
extremely hot, cold, dusty, dirty,
humid or lacking adequate
ventilation, subject to vibration,
direct sunlight or bright light.
Be careful when placing the unit on
surfaces that have been specially
treated (for example, with wax, oil,
polish) as staining or discoloration
of the surface may result.
On heat buildup
Heat buildup in the unit during
operation is normal and is not cause
for alarm.
Do not touch the cabinet if it has
been used continuously at a high
volume because the cabinet may
have become hot.
On the speaker system
This speaker system is not
magnetically shielded, and the picture
on nearby TV sets may become
magnetically distorted. In this
situation, turn off the TV, wait about
15 to 30 minutes, and turn it back on.
If there is no improvement, move the
unit far away from the TV.
Cleaning the cabinet
Clean the cabinet with a soft dry cloth.
Do not use any type of abrasive pad,
scouring powder, or solvent, such as
thinner, benzine, or alcohol.
Hooking up the unit
Wireless transceiver
Insert the supplied wireless transceiver
(EZW-RT10A) securely into the EZW-
RT10 slot on the rear panel of the unit.
Check the orientation of the mark
when inserting the supplied wireless
transceiver (EZW-RT10A). Failure to
do so may result in damage to the unit.
Push to insert the wireless transceiver
firmly until you cannot see it from the
side.
Notes
Make sure to turn off the unit when
inserting or removing the supplied wireless
transceiver (EZW-RT10A). Failure to do so
may result in damage to the unit.
Do not touch the terminals of the supplied
wireless transceiver (EZW-RT10A).
Do not insert any device other than the
supplied wireless transceiver (EZW-
RT10A) into the EZW-RT10A slot.
S-AIR ID selector

Establishing the
connection with an S-AIR
main unit
Connect the unit and S-AIR main unit
to listen to sound from the S-AIR main
unit.
You can easily establish the connection
by setting the same S-AIR ID for this
unit and S-AIR main unit.

Identifying the main unit
with a specific sub unit
(Pairing operation)
It is easy to set the same S-AIR ID for
the main unit and the sub units to
establish the connection.
However, if a neighbor has an S-AIR
main unit with the same S-AIR ID as
your S-AIR main unit, the neighbor
may be able to hear the audio
transmitted from your S-AIR main
unit on the neighbor’s system. Also,
you may be able to hear the audio
transmitted from your neighbor’s
S-AIR main unit on your system. To
prevent this, you can identify the main
unit with a specific sub unit by
performing the pairing operation.
Before pairing
The connection is established by the
S-AIR ID (example).
