Note: PCs have a communication distance restriction of ten meters. Please refer to the instruction
manuals for information on the communication distance restrictions specific to each device.
Note: Communication interference may occur if any obstructions are located between the devices.
Devices may not communicate properly if they have been located, for example, on the ground and
first floors of a residence, despite their being within the acceptable distance.
The devices must be in a connectable state
The Bluetooth devices must recognize each other in order to be connectable for use.
In certain devices, simply turning on the power will not produce a connectable state. Moreover, the energy-
saving feature may come into effect after a certain amount of time, which will prevent the devices from being
detected. Please refer to the specific product instruction manual for further details.
No other radio wave-emitting devices should be operated nearby
Microwave ovens, wireless LANs and other radio wave-emitting devices located nearby may affect Bluetooth
communication.
Please ensure that your devices have been accordingly situated, and that the above devices are not in use
when you are operating your Bluetooth device.
The Bluetooth devices must be turned on
Bluetooth cannot be used if the devices have not been turned on. Some PCs and other components have a
Bluetooth communication switch that operates independently of the main power. Bluetooth cannot function
if this switch has been turned off.
