power.
• There are no two or more wireless LAN access points in the
periphery (with 50 m) (one is OK).

cellular phone connected through the Bluetooth, besides the
setup of MEX-BT3100P/BT3100U.
• The speaker’s voice will become loud naturally if the periph-

• The speaker’s voice will become loud naturally if the other
party’s voice is loud.
