It is easy to set the same S-AIR ID for
the unit and S-AIR main unit to
establish the connection.
However, if a neighbor has an S-AIR
main unit with the same S-AIR ID as
your S-AIR main unit, the neighboring
system may receive and react to the
command from this remote
commander. To prevent this, you can
identify the unit with a specific S-AIR
main unit by performing the pairing
operation.

You can easily establish the connection
by setting the same S-AIR ID for this

For the S-AIR sub unit, power
management, volume adjustment and
coupling operations can be performed
using this remote commander. After
the coupling operation is established,
the S-AIR sub unit and this remote
commander are linked together.
This unit is also compatible with

Precautions
Notes on use of the S‑AIR
product
As the S-AIR product transmits data
by radio waves, data may skip when
radio waves are obstructed. This is a
characteristic of radio waves and is
not a malfunction.
As the S-AIR product transmits data
by radio waves, equipment that
generates electromagnetic energy,
such as a microwave oven, may
interfere with sound transmission.
As the S-AIR product uses the radio
waves that share the same frequency
as other wireless systems, such as
wireless LAN or Bluetooth devices,
interference or poor transmission
may result. In this case, take the
following step:
Do not use S-AIR product and
the other wireless systems at the
same time.
The transmission distance differs
depending on the usage

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
AIR-RM10.
This technology transfers digital
audio signals with no compression
using the 2.4 GHz band range of
ISM band (Industrial, Scientific, and
Medical band), such as wireless
LANs and Bluetooth applications.
This equipment complies with FCC
radiation exposure limits set forth for
uncontrolled equipment and meets the
FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure
Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65.
This equipment has very low levels of
RF energy that it is deemed to comply
without testing of specific absorption
