Features
The AIR-SA5R is an “S-AIR” compatible product. It is also called the
“S-AIR sub unit.”
It is easy to ready the unit for use. All you have to do is connect it to a wall socket.
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 a bedroom, and then install the main unit in the living room. You can then listen to 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 unit from the wall socket (mains) if it is not going to be used for an extended period of time.
Should any solid object or liquid get into the unit, unplug the unit, and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it again.
On placement
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 a 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.
S-AIR (Sony Audio Interactive Radio frequency)
Recent times have seen the rapid spread of DVD media, Digital Broadcasting, and other highquality 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 built-in wireless transceiver 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.

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.
1Operate the S-AIR main unit to turn on the S-AIR function.
For details on turning on the S-AIR function, refer to the Operating Instructions supplied with the S-AIR main unit.
2Set the S-AIR ID of the unit to the same S-AIR ID as the S-AIR main unit to be connected.
For details on setting the S-AIR ID of the S-AIR main unit, refer to the Operating Instructions supplied with the S-AIR main unit.
3Press to turn on the unit.
Once the connection is established, the S-AIR indicator on the unit lights up.
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).

When selecting the MULTI SOURCE mode, you can listen to different sound source with each sub unit.
For setting up and details, refer to the
Operating Instructions of the main unit.
To identify the unit using the optional* S-AIR Remote commander AIR-RM10 (Coupling operation)
This unit is compatible with the coupling operation. The coupling operation establishes a connection between the sub unit and optional*
S-AIR remote commander. For details, refer to the Operating Instructions of the optional* S-AIR remote commander.
When the coupling operation is in progress, the CPL indicator on the unit flashes. When completed, it stays on.
Notes
The AIR-RM10 can operate / (power), VOLUME+/–, and COUPLING with this unit.
In the following cases, the CPL indicator turns off:
-If the S-AIR main unit is not compatible with the MULTI SOURCE mode.
-If the S-AIR main unit is not compatible with the coupling operation.
-If processing of the coupling operation is failed.
For details on coupling operation, refer to the Operating Instructions of the AIR-RM10.
