About BLUETOOTH function
What is BLUETOOTH technology?
BLUETOOTH wireless technology is a short-range
wireless technology that enables wireless data
communication between digital devices, such as
a cellular phone and a headset. BLUETOOTH
wireless technology operates within a range of
about 10 m (33 ft). Connecting two devices is
common, but some devices can be connected to
multiple devices at the same time.
You do not need to use a cable for connection
since BLUETOOTH technology is a wireless
technology, neither is it necessary for the devices
to face one another, such is the case with infrared
technology. For example, you can use such a
device in a bag or pocket.
BLUETOOTH technology is an international
standard supported by millions of companies all
over the world, and employed by various
companies worldwide.
On BLUETOOTH communication
BLUETOOTH wireless technology operates within
a range of about 10 m (33 ft).
Maximum communication range may vary
depending on obstacles (person, metal, wall, etc.)
or electromagnetic environment.
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 BLUETOOTH device.
A device using 2.4 GHz frequency, such as a
wireless LAN device, cordless telephone, or
microwave oven, is in use near this unit.
Because BLUETOOTH devices and wireless LAN
(IEEE802.11b/g) use the same frequency,
microwave interference may occur and result in
communication speed deterioration, noise, or
invalid connection if this unit is used near a
wireless LAN device. In such as case, perform the
following.
Use this unit at least 10 m (33 ft) away from the
wireless LAN device.
If this unit is used within 10 m (33 ft) of a
wireless LAN device, turn off the wireless LAN
device.
Install this unit and BLUETOOTH device as near
to each other as possible.
20GB
Microwaves emitting from a BLUETOOTH device
+ side up
may affect the operation of electronic medical
devices. Turn off this unit and other BLUETOOTH
devices in the following locations, as it may cause
an accident.
where inflammable gas is present, in a hospital,
train, airplane, or 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 the BLUETOOTH
wireless technology is used, but security may not
be enough depending on the setting. Be careful
when communicating using BLUETOOTH wireless
technology.
We do not take any responsibility for the leakage
of information during BLUETOOTH
communication.
Connection with all BLUETOOTH devices cannot
be guaranteed.
A device featuring BLUETOOTH function is
required to conform to the BLUETOOTH
standard specified by BLUETOOTH SIG, and be
authenticated.
Even if the connected 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.
While talking on the phone hands free, noise
may occur, depending on the device or
communication environment.
Depending on the device to be connected, it may
require some time to start communication.
Others
Using the BLUETOOTH device may not function on
cellular phones, depending on radio wave
conditions and location where the equipment is
being used.
If you experience discomfort after using the
BLUETOOTH device, stop using the BLUETOOTH
device immediately. Should any problem persist,
consult your nearest Sony dealer.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your unit that are not covered in this manual,
consult your nearest Sony dealer.
Maintenance
Replacing the lithium battery of the remote
commander
When the battery becomes weak, the range of the
remote commander becomes shorter. Replace the
battery with a new CR2025 lithium battery. Use of
any other battery may present a risk of fire or
explosion.
Notes on the lithium battery
Keep the lithium battery out of the reach of children.
Should the battery be swallowed, immediately
consult a doctor.
Wipe the battery with a dry cloth to assure a good
contact.
Be sure to observe the corre ct pola rity wh en inst alling
the battery.
Do not hold the battery with metallic tweezers,
otherwise a short-circuit may occur.
WARNING
Battery may explode if mistreated.
Do not recharge, disassemble, or dispose of in
fire.
Cleaning the magnetic charging connectors
The unit may not function properly if the magnetic
charging connectors between the unit and the
smartphone are not clean. In order to prevent this,
clean the magnetic charging connectors with a
cotton swab. Do not apply too much force.
Otherwise, the magnetic charging connectors may
be damaged.
Notes
For safety, turn off the ignition before cleaning the
magnetic charging connector, and remove the key
from the ignition switch.
Never touch the magnetic charging connectors
directly with your fingers or with any metal device.

Hochfrequenzstrahlung
HF-Signale beeinträchtigen möglicherweise nicht
ordnungsgemäß installierte oder unzureichend
abgeschirmte elektronische Systeme in
Kraftfahrzeugen, wie z. B. elektronische
Kraftstoffeinspritzsysteme, elektronische
Antiblockiersysteme, elektronische
Geschwindigkeitsregelsysteme oder AirbagSysteme. Zur Installation oder Wartung dieses
Geräts wenden Sie sich bitte an den
Fahrzeughersteller oder einen Vertreter des
Herstellers. Eine fehlerhafte Installation oder
Wartung kann gefährlich sein und zum Erlöschen
der für dieses Gerät gültigen Gewährleistung
führen.
Wenden Sie sich bitte an den Fahrzeughersteller
und klären Sie ab, ob der Gebrauch von
Mobiltelefonen im Fahrzeug die Fahrzeugelektronik
in ihrer Funktionsfähigkeit beeinträchtigen könnte.
Überprüfen Sie regelmäßig, ob alle drahtlosen
Geräte in Ihrem Fahrzeug richtig montiert sind und

Notrufe
Diese BLUETOOTH-Freisprecheinrichtung für das
Auto und das elektronische Gerät, das mit der
Freisprecheinrichtung verbunden ist, arbeiten mit
Radiosignalen, Mobilfunk- und Festnetzen sowie
benutzerprogrammierten Funktionen, bei denen
nicht unter allen Umständen eine Verbindung
garantiert werden kann.
Verlassen Sie sich daher bei wichtigen Mitteilungen
(wie z. B. medizinischen Notfällen) nicht
ausschließlich auf elektronische Geräte.
Wenn Sie Anrufe tätigen oder empfangen wollen,
denken Sie daran, dass die Freisprecheinrichtung
und das elektronische Gerät, das mit der
Freisprecheinrichtung verbunden ist, eingeschaltet
sein müssen und nur in Gebieten mit ausreichender
Mobilfunksignalstärke verwendet werden können.
Notrufe sind unter Umständen nicht bei allen
Mobilfunknetzen möglich oder stehen bei
Verwendung bestimmter Netzwerkdienste und/
oder Telefonfunktionen nicht zur Verfügung.
Weitere Informationen erhalten Sie bei Ihrem
lokalen Mobilfunkanbieter.
