What is Bluetooth wireless
technology?
Communication System :
Bluetooth Specification version 2.0
Bluetooth™ wireless technology is
a short-range wireless technology
that enables wireless data
communication between digital
devices, such as a computer or
digital camera. Bluetooth wireless
technology operates within a range
of about 10 meters (about 30 feet).
Connecting two devices as
Compatible Bluetooth Profiles:
– A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution
Profile): Transmitting or receiving
audio content of high-quality.
– AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control
Profile): Controlling A/V equipment;
pausing, stopping, starting playback,
volume control, etc.
– HSP (Headset Profile)*: Talking on the
phone/Operating the phone.
– HFP (Hands-free Profile)*: Talking on
the phone/Operating the phone by
hands-free.
necessary 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, nor 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.
* When you use a Bluetooth mobile
phone supported by both HFP (Hands-
free Profile) and HSP (Headset Profile),
set to HFP.
Bluetooth standard is an
international standard supported by
thousands of companies all over the
world, and employed by various
companies worldwide.
Notes
• To be able to use the Bluetooth
function, the Bluetooth device to be
connected requires the same profile as
the unit’s.
Note also that even if the same profile
exists, devices may vary in function
depending on their specifications.
• Due to the characteristic of Bluetooth
wireless technology, the sound played
on this unit is slightly delayed from the
sound played on the Bluetooth device
during talking on the telephone or
listening to the music.

Pairing
What is pairing?
Procedures of pairing
Bluetooth devices need to be
“paired” with each other
beforehand.

there is no need for pairing again,
except in the following cases:
• Pairing information is deleted
after repair, etc.
• This unit is paired with 9 or more
devices.
This unit can be paired with up to
8 devices; if a new device is
paired after 8 devices have been
paired, the device whose latest
connection time is the oldest
among the 8 paired devices is
replaced by the new one.
1 Place the Bluetooth
device within 1 m (3 ft)
of this unit.
2 Press and hold the
POWER button for
7 seconds or more to
standby for pairing
while the unit is turned
off.
• When recognition of the unit by
