About S-AIR function

About S-AIR function

As the S-AIR product(s) transmits sound by radio waves, sound may skip when radio waves are obstructed. This is a characteristic of radio waves and is not malfunction.

As the S-AIR product(s) transmits sound by radio waves, equipment that generates electromagnetic energy, such as a microwave oven, may prevent sound transmission.

As the S-AIR product(s) uses the radio waves that share the same frequency as other wireless systems, such as wireless LAN or Bluetooth devices it may occur interference or poor transmission as a result. In this case, take the following steps to enhance the transmission of signals:

Avoid placing the S-AIR product(s) near other wireless systems.

Avoid using the S-AIR product(s) and the other wireless systems spontaneously.

The transmission may be improved by changing the transmission channel (frequency) of the other wireless system(s). For details, refer to the operating instructions of the other wireless system(s).

The transmission distance differs depending on the usage of environment. Find a location where transmission between the S-AIR main unit and sub unit is most effective, and install the S-AIR main unit and sub unit there.

Place the S-AIR product(s) on the stable surface off the floor.

Poor transmission may occur and the transmission distance may be too short if the following conditions exist:

There is a wall/floor made of reinforced concrete or stone between the S-AIR product(s).

There is an iron divider/door or furniture/electric product made of fireproof glass, metal, etc., between the S-AIR product(s).

Notes about the Discs

On handling discs

To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the surface.

Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as the temperature may rise considerably inside the car.

After playing, store the disc in its case.

On cleaning

Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth.

Wipe the disc from the center out.

Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

This system can only play back a standard circular disc. Using neither standard nor circular discs (e.g., card, heart, or star shape) may cause a malfunction.

Do not use a disc that has a commercially available accessory attached, such as a label or ring.
