• Unplug the unit l¥om the wall outlet (mains) if you do not intend to use it for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the ping, never by the cord.
On placement
• Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.
• At high volume, over long periods of time, the cd_inet becomes hot to the touch. This is not a malfunction.
However, touching the cabinet should be aw)ided. Do not place the unit in a confined space where ventilation is poor as this may cause overheating.
• Do not block the ventilation slots by putting anything on the system. The system is equipped with a high power amplifier. If the ventilation slots are blocked,
Ihe unit can overheat and malfunction.
• Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation slots.
• Do not install the unit near heat sources such as radiators, or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or shock.
• Do not install the unit in an inclined position. It is designed to be operated in a horizontal position only.

• As the S-AIR l)mction transmits sound hy radio waves, sound may skip when radio waves are obstructed.
This is a characteristic of radio waves and is not malfimction.
• As the S-AIR function transmits sound by radio waves, equipment that generates electromagnetic energy, such as a microwave oven_ may interfere with sound transmission.
• As the S-AIR fimction uses the radio waves that share the same frequency as other wireless systems, such as wireless LAN or Bluetooth, interference or poor transmission may result. In this case, take the
Ibllowing
steps:
Do not install the system near other wireless systems.
Do not use the system and the other wireless systems at the same time.
• The tr msmission distance difli:rs depending on the usage environment.
Find a location where transmission between the S-AIR main unit and sub unit is most efl'cctive, and install the S-AIR main unit and sub unit there.

Glossary
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration was developed by Sony to automatically measure and adjusts the speaker settings to your listening environment in a short period of time.
Digital Direct Twin Drive Subwoofer
Utilizing Sony proprietary S-master technology, the Digital Direct Twin Drive Subwoofcr features two S-master Digital Amplifiers that provide dedicated power to a strategically located subwoollzr R>r astounding sound perti)rmance.
Easy to set up, Digital Direct Twin
[)rive Subwoollzr provides a stable sound field over a much larger listening area without having to adjust lbequency levels.
Dolby Digital
This movie theater sound lormat is more advanced than Dolby Surround Pro Logic. In this t_>rmat, the surround speakers output stereo sound witl_ an expanded fl'equency range, and a subwootlzr chaunel for deep bass is independently provided.
This R_rmat is also called "5.1" with the subwoollzr cham_el designed as the 0.1 cbannel (since it functions only when a deep bass effcct is needed).
All six channels in this lormat are recorded separately for superior channel separation.
Furthermore, since all the signals are processed digitally, less signal degradation occurs.
Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II creates five [ull-bm*dwidth output channels from 2 channel sources. This is done using an advanced, high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of' the original recording without
adding any new s<)tmds or tonal colorations.
• Movie mode
The Movie mode is li_)ruse with stereo television shows and all programs encoded in Dolby
Surround.
The result is enhanced sound field directionality that approaches the quality of discrete 5.1-channel sound.
• Music
mode
The Music mode is fl)r use with any stere(> music recordings, and provides a wide and deep sound space.
Dolby Surround Pro Logic
As one method of decoding Dolhy Surround,
Dolby Surround Pro Logic produces four channels from 2 cbaunel sound. Compared with the fornler Dolby Surround system, Dolby
Surround Pro Logic reproduces left-to-right panning more naturally and localizes sounds more precisely.
To take full advantage of Dolby
Surround Pro Logic, you should have one pair of surround speakers and a center speaker. The surround speakers output illonaural
SOul>d.
DTS
Digital audio compression technology developed by DTS, lnc. This technology conlorms to 5. l-channel surround.
This lbrmat comprises of stereo rear channel and there is discrete subwooli:r channel in this l\>rmat. DTS provides tile same 5.1 discrete channels of high quality digital audio. Tile good channel separation is realized due to the all channel data being recorded discretely and processed in digitally.
HDMI (High-Definition
Interface)
Multimedia
HDMI is ml interface that supports both video and audio on a single digital connection, allowing you to enjoy high quality digital picture and sound. Tile HDMI specification supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection), a copy protection technology that incorporates coding techm)logy t_)r digital video signals.
Interlace format
(Interlaced scanning)
The Interlace format is tile NTSC stmMard method [_>rdisplaying TV images at 30 l?ames
per second.
Each frame is scanned twice alternately between the eve>>numbered scanning lines and then odd numbered scanning lines, at
60 times per second.
Parental Control
A function of tile DVD to limit playhack of the disc by the age of the users according to the limitation level in each country.
The limitation varies tYoln disc to disc; when it is activated, playback is completely prohibited, violent scenes are skipped or replaced witll other scenes and so on.
Progressive
(sequential format scanning)
In contrast to the Interlace format, the progressive [k)rmat can reproduce 50 - 60 frames per second by reproducing all scanning lines
(525 lines lk)r the NTSC system).
The overall picture quality increases and still images, text and horizontal lines appear sharper.
This lormat is compatible with the 525 or 625 progressive lk)rmat.
S-AIR
(Sony Audio Interactive frequency)
Radio
Recent times have seen tile rapid spread of DVD media, Digital Broadcasting, and other highquality media.
To ensure that the subtle nuances of these highquality 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 tile EZW-
RT 11)/EZW-T 100.
This technology transfi:rs digital audit> signals with no compression using the 2.4 GHz hand range of ISM baud (Industrial, Scientific, and
Medical band), such as wireless LANs and
Bluetooth applications.
Super Audio CD
Super Audit> CD is a new high-quality audit> disc standard where music is recorded in the
DSD (Direct Stream Digital) l\>rmat
(conventional CD is recorded in the PCM format).
Tile DSD format, using a sampling tbequency 64 times higher than that of a conventional CD, and with l-bit quantizatiou, achieves both a wide frequency range and a wide dynamic range across tile audible frequency range, and so provides music reproduction extremely faithful to tile original sound.
