Precautions
On safety
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the system, unplug the system and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
Do not climb on the Sound Bar or the subwoofer, as you may fall down and injure yourself, or system damage may result.
On power sources
Before operating the system, check that the operating voltage is identical to your local power supply. The operating voltage is indicated on the nameplate at the rear of the Sound Bar.
If you are not going to use the system for a long time, be sure to disconnect the system from the wall outlet (mains). To disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.
One blade of the plug is wider than the other for the purpose of safety and will fit into the wall outlet (mains) only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your dealer.
AC power cord (mains lead) must be changed only at the qualified service shop.
On heat buildup
Although the system heats up during operation, this is not a malfunction. If you continuously use this system at a large volume, the system temperature of the back and bottom rises considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not touch the system.
On placement
Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat buildup and prolong the life of the system.
Do not place the system near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical shock.
Do not place anything at the rear of the Sound Bar that might block the ventilation holes and cause malfunctions.
If the system is being used in combination with a TV, VCR, or tape deck, noise may result, and picture quality may suffer. In this case, place the system away from the TV, VCR, or tape deck.
Use caution when placing the system on surfaces that have been specially treated (with wax, oil, polish, etc.) as staining or discoloration of the surface may result.
Take care to avoid any possible injury on the corners of the Sound Bar or the subwoofer.
On operation
Before connecting other equipment, be sure to turn off and unplug the system.
If you encounter color irregularity on a nearby TV screen
Color irregularities may be observed on certain types of TV sets.
If color irregularity is
observed...
Turn off the TV set, then turn it on again after 15 to 30 minutes.
If color irregularity is observed again...
Place the system further away from the TV set.
continued
5US
On cleaning
Clean the system with a soft dry cloth. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
If you have any question or problem concerning your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

BLUETOOTH wireless technology
Supported BLUETOOTH version and profiles
Profile refers to a standard set of capabilities for various BLUETOOTH product capabilities. See “Specifications” (page 26) on the BLUETOOTH version and profiles supported by this system.
Notes
For you to use the BLUETOOTH function, the BLUETOOTH device to be connected must support the same profile as this system. Even if the device supports the same profile, the functions may differ because of the specifications of the BLUETOOTH device.
The audio playback on this system may be delayed from that on the BLUETOOTH device because of the characteristics of the BLUETOOTH wireless technology.
Effective communication range
BLUETOOTH devices should be used within approximately 10 meters
(33 feet) (unobstructed distance) of each other. The effective communication range may become shorter under the following conditions.
When a person, metal object, wall or other obstruction is between the devices with a BLUETOOTH connection
Locations where a wireless LAN is installed
Around microwave ovens that are in use
Locations where other electromagnetic waves occur
6US
Effects of other devices
BLUETOOTH devices and wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11b/g) use the same frequency band (2.4 GHz). When using your BLUETOOTH device near a device with wireless LAN capability, electromagnetic interference may occur.
This could result in lower data transfer rates, noise, or inability to connect. If this happens, try the following remedies:
Try connecting this system and BLUETOOTH mobile phone or BLUETOOTH device when you are at least 10 meters (33 feet) away from the wireless LAN equipment.
Turn off the power to the wireless LAN equipment when using your BLUETOOTH device within
10 meters (33 feet).
Effects on other devices
The radio waves broadcast by this system may interfere with the operation of some medical devices. Since this interference may result in malfunction, always turn off the power on this system, BLUETOOTH mobile phone and BLUETOOTH device in the following locations:
In hospitals, on trains, in airplanes, at gas stations, and any place where flammable gasses may be present
Near automatic doors or fire alarms
Notes
This system supports security functions that comply with the BLUETOOTH specification as a means of ensuring security during communication using BLUETOOTH technology. However, this security may be insufficient depending on the setting contents and other factors, so always be careful when performing communication using BLUETOOTH technology.
Sony cannot be held liable in any way for damages or other loss resulting from information leaks during communication using BLUETOOTH technology.
BLUETOOTH communication is not necessarily guaranteed with all BLUETOOTH devices that have the same profile as this system.
BLUETOOTH devices connected with this system must comply with the BLUETOOTH specification prescribed by the Bluetooth SIG, Inc., and must be certified to comply. However, even when a device complies with the BLUETOOTH specification, there may be cases where the characteristics or specifications of the BLUETOOTH device make it impossible to connect, or may result in different control methods, display or operation.
Noise may occur or the audio may cut off depending on the BLUETOOTH device connected with this system, the communications environment, or surrounding conditions.

–Pairing information is deleted by repairing the system.
–Pairing for 9 or more devices is to be set.
This system can set pairing with up to 8 devices. If pairing is to be set on a device after pairing has been set on 8 devices, the pairing information on a device whose connection date is the oldest is overwritten with new information.
–The connection history with this system is deleted on the connected device.
Pairing manually
If you intend to pair the system with 2 or more BLUETOOTH, manual pairing is necessary.
1Place the BLUETOOTH device to be connected to this system within 1 meter (3.3 feet) of the system.

Troubleshooting
If you experience any of the following difficulties while using the system, use this troubleshooting guide to help remedy the problem before requesting repairs. Should any problem persist, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
POWER
The power is not turned on.
Check that the AC power cord (mains lead) is connected securely.
SOUND
Dolby Digital sound is not reproduced.
Check that the Blu-ray Disc, DVD, etc., is recorded in Dolby Digital format.
When connecting the Blu-ray Disc, DVD player, etc., to the digital input jacks of this system, check the audio setting (settings for the audio output) of the connected equipment.
The surround effect cannot be obtained.
Depending on the input signal and the setting for the sound field, surround sound processing may not work effectively. The surround effect may be subtle depending on the program or disc.
If you connect a Blu-ray Disc player or a DVD player compatible with the surround effect function, the surround effect of the system may not work.
In this case, set the surround effect function of the connected equipment to off.
For details, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the connected equipment.
No TV sound is output from the system.
Check the connection of the digital optical cord or audio cord that is connected to the system and the TV (page 12, 13).
Check the sound output of the TV (page 16).
Check if the TV sound is set to low volume or muted (page 22).
Check that the input jack connected to the TV is correctly selected (page 21).
The sound is output from both the system and the TV.
Turn off the sound of the system or the TV.
No sound or only a very low-level sound of the connected equipment is heard from the system.
Press VOL + and check the volume level (page 21).
Press MUTING or VOL + to cancel the muting function (page 21).
Check that the input source is correctly selected (page 21).
Check that all the cables and cords of the system and the connected equipment are fully inserted.
A subwoofer is for reproducing bass sound. In the case of input sources that contain very little bass sound components (i.e., a TV broadcast), the sound from the subwoofer may be difficult to hear.
