Using Bluetooth™ components

You can connect a Yamaha Bluetooth adapter (such as YBA-10, sold separately) to the DOCK terminal of this unit and enjoy the music contents stored in your Bluetooth component (such as a portable music player) without wiring between this unit and the Bluetooth component. You need to perform “pairing” the connected Bluetooth adapter and your Bluetooth component in advance.

Pairing the Bluetooth™ adapter and your Bluetooth component

Pairing must be performed when using a Bluetooth component with the Bluetooth adapter connected to this unit for the first time or if the pairing data has been deleted. “Pairing” refers to the operation of registering a Bluetooth component for Bluetooth communications.

y

•You only need the pairing operation for the first time that you use the Bluetooth component with the Bluetooth adapter.

•Pairing requires operations on this unit and on the other component with which Bluetooth communications are to be established. If necessary, refer to the other component’s operating instructions.

There are two pairing methods: pairing by using “START PAIRING” in “SET MENU” and quick pairing.

■Pairing by using “SET MENU”

Use this feature to perform pairing with the video monitor. Select “START PAIRING” in “INPUT MENU”. See page 97 for details.

■Quick pairing

To ensure security, a time limit of 8 minutes is set for the pairing operation. You are recommended to read and fully understand all the instructions before starting.

1Rotate the RINPUT selector (or set the operation mode selector to FSOURCE and then press 4V-AUX) to select “V-AUX” as

the input source.

2Turn on the Bluetooth component you want to pair with.

3Press and hold CBAND (or 7BAND) for 3 seconds to start pairing.

Once the Bluetooth adapter starts pairing, “Searching...” appears for a moment. While the Bluetooth adapter is in the pairing mode, DOCK indicator flashes in the front panel display.

y

To cancel the pairing, press CBAND (or 7BAND) again.

Note

If the Bluetooth adapter is not connected to the DOCK terminal of this unit, “No BT adapter” appears in the front panel display.

4Check that the Bluetooth component detects the Bluetooth adapter.

If the Bluetooth component detects the Bluetooth adapter, “YBA-10 YAMAHA” (example) appears in the Bluetooth device list.

5Select the Bluetooth adapter in the Bluetooth device list and then enter the pass key “0000” on the Bluetooth component.

When the pairing procedure is successful, “Completed” appears in the front panel display.

Note

The Yamaha Bluetooth adapter can be paired with up to eight Bluetooth components. When pairing is conducted successfully with a ninth component and the pairing data is registered, the pairing data for the least recently used other component is cleared.

Playback of the Bluetooth™ component

1Rotate the RINPUT selector (or set the operation mode selector to FSOURCE and then press 4V-AUX) to select “V-AUX” as

the input source.

2Start playback of your Bluetooth component.

When the connected Bluetooth adapter detects the Bluetooth component, “BT connected” and the DOCK indicator appears in the front panel display.

y

•When you press 8ENTER on the remote control, the connected Bluetooth adapter searches and connect to the last connected Bluetooth component. If the Bluetooth adapter cannot find the Bluetooth component, “Not found” appears in the front panel display.

•To disconnect the Bluetooth adapter from the Bluetooth component, press 9RETURN.
