Features AIR-SW10Ti is an S-AIR compatible packaged product that consists of one S-AIR main unit and one subwoofer. You can enjoy high quality sound by connecting the subwoofer wirelessly. The subwoofer can be used only with this main unit. In addition, connecting the S-AIR main unit (hereafter called main unit) to optional S-AIR sub units (hereafter called sub units) using S-AIR technology, you can use each unit in a remote location. For example, you can install optional sub units, one in a study room and the other in a bedroom, and install the system in the living room. You can then listen to music from the system located in the living room by controlling the sub units. Up to 10 optional sub units can be connected to a main unit.

S-AIR (Sony Audio Interactive Radio frequency) Recent times have seen the rapid spread of DVD media, Digital Broadcasting, and other high-quality media. To ensure that the subtle nuances of these high-quality media are transmitted with no deterioration, Sony has developed a technology called S-AIR for the radio transmission of digital audio signals with no compression, and has incorporated this technology into the EZW-RT10A. This technology transfers digital audio signals with no compression using the 2.4 GHz band range of ISM band (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical band), such as wireless LANs and Bluetooth applications.

Check the orientation of the mark when inserting the supplied wireless transceivers (EZW-RT10A). Failure to do so may result in damage to the main unit and subwoofer.

Notes Make sure to turn off the main unit and the subwoofer when

inserting or removing the supplied wireless transceivers (EZW- RT10A). Failure to do so may result in damage to the main unit and subwoofer. Do not touch the terminals of the supplied wireless transceivers

(EZW-RT10A). Do not insert any device other than the supplied wireless

transceivers (EZW-RT10A) into the EZW-RT10A slot.

FM antenna Find a location and an orientation that provide good reception, and then set up the antenna. Keep the antenna away from the power cord to avoid picking up noise.

Subwoofer Set the S-AIR ID selector on the rear panel to the same S-AIR ID as the main unit.

Tip The S-AIR ID is set at the factory to A.

4 Confirmtheconnectionstatus. Once connection between the main unit and the subwoofer is established, the S-AIR indicator on the subwoofer lights up.

Tip You can also connect up to 10 optional sub units to the main unit. In this case, set the S-AIR ID to the same ID as the main unit. For details on the S-AIR ID of the sub unit, refer to the Operating Instructions supplied with the sub unit.

Identifying the subwoofer with your main unit (Pairing operation) It is easy to set the same S-AIR ID for the main unit and the subwoofer to establish the connection. However, if a neighbor has an AIR-SW10Ti system with the same S-AIR ID as your S-AIR main unit, the neighbor may be able to hear the audio transmitted from your main unit on the neighbors subwoofer. Also, you may be able to hear the audio transmitted from your neighbors main unit on your subwoofer. To prevent this, you can identify the subwoofer with your main unit by performing the pairing operation.

Before pairing Connection is established by the S-AIR ID (example).

If you have done the pairing operation of only the main unit, repeat to of step 4 again. If you have done the pairing operation of both the main unit and subwoofer, repeat to of step 4 and press PAIRING on the rear panel of the subwoofer.

Tip You can also pair the main unit with optional sub units. For details on turning on the pairing function, refer to the Operating Instructions supplied with the sub unit.

If the S-AIR connection is unstable Since the S-AIR product uses radio waves that share the same frequency (2.4 GHz) as other wireless systems, such as wireless LAN or Bluetooth devices, interference or poor transmission may result if you use other wireless devices near the system. In this case, the connection may be improved by changing the RF CHANGE (Radio Frequency Change) setting on the main unit. 1 PressSYSTEMMENU.

Precautions

Notes on use of the S-AIR product As the S-AIR product transmits sound by radio waves,

sound may skip if radio waves are obstructed. This is a characteristic of radio waves and is not a malfunction of the system.

As the S-AIR product transmits sound by radio waves, equipment that generates electromagnetic energy, such as a microwave oven, may interfere with sound transmission of the system.

As the S-AIR product uses the radio waves that share the same frequency as other wireless systems, such as wireless LAN or Bluetooth devices, interference or poor transmission may result. In this case, take the following steps: Do not install S-AIR products near other wireless

systems. Do not use S-AIR products and other wireless

systems at the same time. The transmission distance differs depending on the

usage environment. Find a location where transmission between the unit and subwoofer is most effective, and install the unit and subwoofer there.

On safety Completely disconnect the power cord from the wall

socket if the main unit and subwoofer are not going to be used for an extended period of time. When unplugging them, always grip the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

Should any solid object or liquid get into the main unit or a subwoofer, unplug the unit in question, and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it again.

The power cord should only be changed by a qualified service facility.

On placement Do not place the unit and subwoofer in an inclined

position or in locations that are extremely hot, cold, dusty, dirty, or humid or lacking adequate ventilation. Also, do not place in a location subject to vibration, direct sunlight or bright light.

Be careful when placing the unit and the subwoofer on surfaces that have been specially treated (for example, with wax, oil, polish), as staining or discoloration of the surface may result.

On heat buildup Heat buildup of the unit and subwoofer during

operation is normal and no cause for alarm.

Cleaning the cabinet Clean the cabinet with a soft dry cloth. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as thinner, benzine, or alcohol.
