(FCC Part15 Subpart C §15.247, 15.253, 15.255)
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that are deemed to comply without testing of specic absorption ratio (SAR).
(FCC Part15 Subpart C §15.247, 15.253, 15.255)
For Canada
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSSs. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes :
1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage;
2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.
(RSS-Gen §8.4)
The available scientic evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health eects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating eects causes no known adverse health eects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological eects. Some studies have suggested that some biological eects might occur, but such ndings have not been conrmed by additional research. WL-T has been tested and found to comply with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.
Les connaissances scientiques dont nous disposons n’ont mis en évidence aucun problème de santé associé à l’usage des appareils sans l à faible puissance. Nous ne sommes cependant pas en mesure de prouver que ces appareils sans l à faible puissance sont entièrement sans danger. Les appareils sans l à faible puissance émettent une énergie fréquence radioélectrique (RF) très faible dans le spectre des micro-ondes lorsqu’ils sont utilisés. Alors qu’une dose élevée de RF peut avoir des eets sur la santé (en chauant les tissus), l’exposition à de faibles RF qui ne produisent pas de chaleur n’a pas de mauvais eets connus sur la santé. De nombreuses études ont été menées sur les expositions aux RF faibles et n’ont découvert aucun eet biologique. Certaines études ont suggéré qu’il pouvait y avoir certains eets biologiques, mais ces résultats n’ont pas été conrmés par des recherches supplémentaires. WL-T a été testé et jugé conforme aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements IC énoncées pour un environnement non contrôlé et respecte les règles d’exposition aux fréquences radioélectriques (RF) CNR-102 de l’IC.

KATANA-AIR
An “all-wireless” guitar amp that supports wireless for guitar as well
The KATANA-AIR is a guitar amp that provides wireless connectivity for your guitar as well as Bluetooth and battery operation, making it an “all-wireless” guitar amp that lets you enjoy playing without connecting any cables to it.
Transmitter
Main Features
5 Wireless transmitter for guitar achieves low latency.
Enjoy cable-free performance.
5 Four original amp types are provided: the edgy
“brown” inherited from the BOSS Waza Head, as well as clean, crunch, and lead. Additionally provided is a dedicated acoustic amp that you can also use with an acoustic guitar.
5 Built-in BOSS eects are easy to operate and
provide high quality (up to three can be used simultaneously). If you connect the dedicated app via Bluetooth, you can select from a total of 58 dierent types of eect.
5 You can use headphones to enjoy sound that’s as
powerful as though you were hearing it from a speaker.
5 Stereo audio streaming via Bluetooth is also
supported.
5 Two-way power supply allows operation using
either eight AA batteries or an AC adaptor. Standby/Wakeup-On function lets the batteries last even longer.
Before using this unit, carefully read “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (the leaet “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and the Owner’s Manual (p. 11)). After reading, keep the document(s) where it will be available for immediate reference.

MEMO
When the power is on, and a certain length of time elapses since the unit was last played or operated, the unit automatically enters standby mode. You can use a dedicated app (subsequently referred to as BOSS Tone Studio) to change the time after which the unit enters standby mode (p. 7).
In standby mode, the power automatically turns on if the transmitter plugged into the guitar detects vibration (p. 5).

8 TONE SETTING
[CH A], [CH B] buttons
Each of these buttons stores three sets of settings for all top panel knobs (except the [MASTER] knob) and buttons (p. 6). Each time you press a button, the color alternates between green, red, and orange, and the settings change accordingly. If you hold down a button for one second, the settings of the sound that you’re currently hearing are overwritten onto the previously-stored settings.
* You can make the settings back to the factory state by turning
the power on while holding down the [PANEL] button (p. 9).

9 (PHONES)/REC OUT jack
Connect headphones here. You can obtain powerful guitar sounds just as if you were playing through the speaker. By using BOSS Tone Studio you can obtain the sound of dierent micing (LINE OUT AIR FEEL, p. 7). To adjust the volume, use the [VOLUME] knob along with the [MASTER] knob.
* If a plug is inserted in this jack, no sound will be output from
the KATANA’s own speaker. This is convenient if you don’t want loud sound to be produced from the speaker, such as when you’re practicing at night.
10 INPUT jack
You can directly connect your electric guitar here. * To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn
down the volume, and turn o all the units before making any connections.
11 TRANSMITTER IN jack
You can insert the included transmitter (p. 4) here to charge it. The rst time that you use the unit, power-on the KATANA-AIR and
insert the transmitter here to charge it.
NOTE
5 Do not insert anything other than a transmitter made by
BOSS. If you connect headphones, high-volume sound might be
emitted, or the headphones might be damaged.
5 Ambient temperature range during charging: 5°C–35°C
However, in order to take full advantage of the rechargeable lithium-ion battery’s performance, we recommend that you charge it in a temperature range of 10°C–30°C.
If the temperature is outside the appropriate range, a charging error might occur (the BATTERY indicator blinks red) and the battery fail to charge (p. 10).
Makes the unit sound using the current settings of the panel knobs.
