This unit enables you to enjoy music playback wirelessly with a Bluetooth device (such as mobile phones, computers, portable players, etc.) by pairing

(registering) with the device and establishing a Bluetooth connection with this unit. • Install in a stable place.• Do not place on top of steel or other metal.• Do not cover with a cloth, etc.• Install in the same room where the device is with which signals are to be exchanged (Bluetooth profile A2DP compatible portable music player, mobile phone, etc.) within a direct, maximum line-of-sight distance of 10 m (33 ft). • Make sure there are no obstacles between this unit and the Bluetooth device.

Pairing must be performed when using Bluetooth connection for the first time or if pairing data has been deleted. Pairing can be done within about 5

minutes after the power is turned on. • Check that the pairing process on the other device has been completed. If the pairing process fails, start over from step b. For details, see the other device’s operating instructions. • If the power supply to this unit is cut off during the pairing operation, the pairing data may be damaged. If so, perform the steps described in “Clearing all the pairing data” and then perform pairing again (☞ page 7). • This unit can be paired with up to 8 other devices. When pairing is conducted successfully with the 9th device and the pairing data is registered, the pairing data of the other device which is the least recently connected to this unit, is cleared.

• Bluetooth is a technology for wireless communication between devices within an area of about 10 meters (33 ft) employing the 2.4 GHz frequency band, a band which can be used without a license. • Bluetooth is a registered trademark of the Bluetooth SIG and is used by Yamaha in accordance with a license agreement. 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 communication is possible differs according to the distance between the communicating devices, the presence of obstacles, radio wave conditions and the type of equipment.• Yamaha does not guarantee all wireless connections between this unit and devices compatible with Bluetooth function.
