Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a technology for wireless communication employing the 2.4 GHz frequency band, which can be used without a license.

Handling Bluetooth communications

• The 2.4 GHz band used by Bluetooth compatible devices

is a radio band shared by many types of equipment. While Bluetooth compatible devices use a technology minimizing the influence of other components using the same radio band, such influence may reduce the speed or distance of communications and in some cases interrupt communications.

• The speed of signal transfer and the distance at which

communications is possible differs according to the distance between the communicating devices, the presence of obstacles, radio wave conditions and type of equipment.

• Yamaha does not guarantee all wireless connections

between the sound bar and devices compatible with Bluetooth function.
