A device using 2.4 GHz frequency, such as a Wi-Fi device, cordless telephone, or microwave oven, is in use near this unit. Because BLUETOOTH devices and Wi-Fi (IEEE802.11b/g/n) use the same frequency (2.4 GHz), microwave interference may occur, resulting in noise or audio dropout or communications being disabled if this unit is used near a Wi-Fi device. In such case, perform the following: Use this unit at least 10 m (30 feet) away from the Wi-Fi device. If this unit is used within 10 m (30 feet) of a Wi-Fi device, turn off the Wi-Fi device.

Turn off this unit and other BLUETOOTH devices in the following locations, as it may cause an accident: where inflammable gas is present, in a hospital, or a petrol station – near automatic doors or a fire alarm. Using the BLUETOOTH device may not function on mobile phones, depending on radio wave conditions and location where the equipment is being used. Do not use the unit on an airplane. Radio waves may affect instruments, causing an accident due to malfunction. This unit supports security capabilities that comply with the BLUETOOTH standard to provide a secure connection when the BLUETOOTH wireless technology is used, but security may not be enough depending on the setting. Be careful when communicating using BLUETOOTH wireless technology. We do not take any responsibility for the leakage of information during BLUETOOTH communications. Connection with all BLUETOOTH devices cannot be guaranteed. A device featuring BLUETOOTH function is required to conform to the BLUETOOTH standard specified by Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and be authenticated. Even if the connected device conforms to the above mentioned BLUETOOTH standard, some devices may not be connected or work correctly, depending on the features or specifications of the device. Depending on the device to be connected, it may require some time to start communications.
