Bluetooth function of this unit.
Connection with all Bluetooth devices cannot
be guaranteed.
Bluetooth devices used with this unit must
conform to the Bluetooth standard specified
by Bluetooth SIG, Inc., and must be certified
to comply.
Even when the connected Bluetooth 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.
Depending on the device to be connected, it
may require some time to start
communication.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your unit, consult your nearest Sony
dealer.
Troubleshooting
General
The power does not turn on when the AC
power cord is connected.
Make sure the AC power cord is connected to
the wall outlet securely.
The power does not turn on during
battery operation.
Make sure the batteries are inserted correctly.

for the music or sound source you want to
listen to.
Unplug the headphones when listening
through speakers.
The sound is noisy.
Is someone using a mobile phone or other
equipment emitting radio waves near the unit?
If so, move the unit and the Bluetooth device
away from such devices. Devices such as
mobile phones, etc. can affect Bluetooth
communication.
Bluetooth device
There is no sound.
Make sure that this unit is not too far from the
Bluetooth device (or smartphone), or that this
unit is not receiving interference from a
wireless LAN, an other 2.4 GHz wireless device,
or a microwave oven.
Check that the Bluetooth connection was
completed properly between this unit and the
Bluetooth device (or smartphone).
Perform pairing again (See “To pair with a
Bluetooth device”).
Keep away from metal objects or surfaces.
Make sure that the Bluetooth function is
activated on the Bluetooth device (or
smartphone).
The sound skips or the correspondence
distance is short.
If a device that generates electromagnetic
radiation, such as a wireless LAN, other
Bluetooth device(s), or a microwave oven is
nearby, move away from such sources if
possible. Or use the device and the unit away
from such sources.
Remove any obstacle between this unit and
the device or move the device and the unit
away from the obstacle.
Locate this unit and the device as close to each
other as possible.
Re-position this unit.
Try using the Bluetooth device or smartphone
in other position.
A connection cannot be established.
Perform pairing again (See “To pair with a
Bluetooth device”).
Check that the Bluetooth device is compatible
with this unit. For the latest information on
compatible Bluetooth devices, check the
information on the website. The URL is under
“Compatible Bluetooth devices.”
Pairing fails.
Bring the Bluetooth device closer to the unit.
Delete the model name of this unit from the
Bluetooth device and perform pairing again
(See “To pair with a Bluetooth device”).
Check that the Bluetooth device is compatible
with this unit. For the latest information on

Precautions
On safety
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
unit, unplug the unit, and have it checked by
qualified personnel before operating it any
further.
On power sources
For AC operation, use the supplied AC power
cord; do not use any other cord.
Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not
to be used for an extended period of time.
When not using the batteries, remove them to
avoid damage that can be caused by battery
leakage or corrosion.
On placement
Do not leave the unit in a location near heat
sources, in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or mechanical shock, or in a car
subject to the direct rays of the sun.
Do not place the unit on an inclined or
unstable surface.
Do not place anything within 10 mm (
13
/
32
in)
of the rear of the cabinet. The ventilation
openings must be unobstructed for the unit to
operate properly and prolong the life of its
components.
Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers,
keep personal credit cards using magnetic
coding or spring-wound watches away from
the unit to prevent possible damage from the
magnet.
On operation
Condensation may form on outer surfaces or
internally, and cause the unit to malfunction if
the unit is suddenly moved from a cold to a
warm environment. If condensation forms, turn
off the unit, and leave the unit off until the
moisture evaporates. Do not use the unit until
the condensation has fully evaporated.
On cleaning the cabinet
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls using a
soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild
detergent solution. Do not use any type of
abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such
as alcohol or benzine.
On Bluetooth communication
Bluetooth wireless technology operates within
a range of about 10 meters (393
3
/
4
in).
The maximum communication range may vary
depending on obstacles (human body, metal,
wall, etc.) or the electromagnetic environment.
Optimal performance
Limited performance
The unit
Steel cabinet
The following conditions may affect the
sensitivity of Bluetooth communication.
There is an obstacle such as a person, metal,
or wall between this unit and the Bluetooth
device used.
Devices or equipment such as wireless LAN
devices, microwave oven, cordless telephone,
etc., using a 2.4 GHz frequency band, are in
use near the unit.
The unit is placed on a shelf made of steel.
Because both the Bluetooth and the wireless
LAN (IEEE802.11b/g/n) devices use the same
frequency band (2.4 GHz), microwave
interference may occur, resulting in
communication speed deterioration, noise, or
invalid connection if this unit is used near
wireless LAN devices. In such cases, do the
following.
Place or use this unit at least 10 m (393
3
/
4
in) away from the wireless LAN devices.
If this unit is used within 10 m (393
3
/
4
in) of
other wireless LAN devices, turn off the
wireless LAN devices if possible, or place this
unit at least 10 m (393
3
/
4
in) away from the
wireless LAN devices.
Use the Bluetooth device as close to the unit
as possible.
Microwaves emitting from a Bluetooth device
may affect the operation of electronic medical
devices. Turn off the power on this unit and the
Bluetooth device in the following locations, as
they may cause an accident.
Where inflammable gas is present, in a
hospital, train, airplane, or a petrol station
Near automatic doors or a fire alarm
This unit supports security capabilities that
comply with the Bluetooth standard to provide
a secure connection when Bluetooth wireless
technology is used, but security may be
insufficient, depending on the setting. Be
careful when communicating using Bluetooth
wireless technology.
Pairing using the NFC function fails.
Try pairing manually (See “To pair with a
Bluetooth device”). Some NFC-compatible
smartphones may not be paired using the NFC
function of this unit, depending on the features
or specifications of the device.
Relaunch “NFC Easy Connect” and move the
smartphone slowly over the N-marked part .
Check that the smartphone meets the
compatibility requirements (See “Compatible
smartphones”).
Radio
The sound is weak or reception is poor
quality.
Replace all the batteries with new ones.
Move the unit away from any nearby TV.
For FM reception, extend the aerial to its full
length, and reorient it for best FM reception.
For AM reception, reorient the unit itself to find
the best reception.
The TV picture is unstable.
If you are listening to an FM program near a TV
with an indoor antenna, move the unit away
from the TV.
After trying the suggested remedies, if the
problem persists, unplug the AC power cord or
remove all the batteries. After all the indications
on the display disappear, plug in the AC power
cord again, or re-insert the batteries. If the
problem persists, consult your nearest Sony
dealer.
