The subwoofer can be used onlywith this main unit.In addition, connecting the S-AIR main unit (hereaftercalled “main unit”) to optional S-AIR sub units (hereaftercalled “sub units”) using “S-AIR” technology, you can useeach unit in a remote location.For example, you can install optional sub units, one in astudy room and the other in a bedroom, and install thesystem in the living room. You can then listen to musicfrom the system located in the living room by controllingthe sub units.Up to 10 optional sub units can be connected to a mainunit.S-AIR (Sony Audio Interactive Radiofrequency)Recent times have seen the rapid spread of DVDmedia, Digital Broadcasting, and other high-qualitymedia.To ensure that the subtle nuances of these high-qualitymedia are transmitted with no deterioration, Sony hasdeveloped a technology called “S-AIR” for the radiotransmission of digital audio signals with nocompression, and has incorporated this technologyinto the EZW-RT10A.This technology transfers digital audio signals with nocompression using the 2.4 GHz band range of ISMband (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical band), such aswireless LANs and Bluetooth applications.Getting StartedMain unit(ATS-SW10Ti / Wireless Audio Transmitter)TUNINGTUNERiPodVOLUMESTANDBY* Touch sensitive buttonsOperation using the touch sensitive button that beeps.Subwoofer(SA-WA10R / Wireless Speaker System)PAIRINGS-AIR IDABCThe subwoofer can be placed with the speaker side up.Remote (RM-ANU066)This manual mainly explains operations using theremote, but the same operations can also be performedusing the buttons on the unit having the same or similarnames.To use the remoteSlide and remove the battery compartment lid, and insertthe two supplied R03 (size AAA) batteries,  side first,matching the polarities shown below.Notes on using the remote With normal use, the batteries should last for about six months. Do not mix an old battery with a new one or mix different typesof batteries. If you do not intend to use the remote for a long period of time,remove the batteries to avoid damage from battery leakage andcorrosion.Hooking up the systemMain unitANTENNAEZW-RT10AFM 75COAXIALSTANDBYABCorWall socketSubwooferWall socketEZW-RT10AAS-AIR IDPAIRINGBCAC FM lead antenna (extend horizontally) White side for North American model Brown side for other models Wireless transceiver (EZW-RT10A) Wireless transceiverInsert the supplied wireless transceiver (EZW-RT10A)securely into the EZW-RT10A slot on the rear panel ofmain unit and the subwoofer.Check the orientation of the  mark when inserting thesupplied wireless transceivers (EZW-RT10A).

Inthis case, set the S-AIR ID to the same ID as the main unit.For details on the S-AIR ID of the sub unit, refer to the OperatingInstructions supplied with the sub unit.Identifying the subwoofer with your mainunit (Pairing operation)It is easy to set the same S-AIR ID for the main unit andthe subwoofer to establish the connection.However, if a neighbor has an AIR-SW10Ti system withthe same S-AIR ID as your S-AIR main unit, theneighbor may be able to hear the audio transmitted fromyour main unit on the neighbor’s subwoofer. Also, youmay be able to hear the audio transmitted from yourneighbor’s main unit on your subwoofer. To prevent this,you can identify the subwoofer with your main unit byperforming the pairing operation.Before pairingConnection is established by the S-AIR ID (example).Your AIR-SW10Ti systemNeighboringAIR-SW10Ti systemID: ASubwooferMain unit Main unitID: AID: AID: ASubwooferAfter pairingConnection is established between the subwoofer andyour main unit.Your AIR-SW10Ti systemNeighboringAIR-SW10Ti systemPairingID: ASubwooferMain unit Main unitID: AID: AID: ASubwooferNotconnected1 Place the main unit near the subwoofer.2 Check that the power of the main unit and thesubwoofer is turned on.3 Check that the S-AIR ID of the main unit is the sameas the S-AIR ID of the subwoofer.4 Perform the pairing operation of the main unit andthe subwoofer as follows:Main unit Press SYSTEM MENU . Press /  repeatedly until “S-AIR” appears,then press ENTER . Press /  repeatedly until “PAIRING” appears,then press ENTER .“OK?” flashes. Press ENTER  again.“PAIRING” flashes and the main unit is ready forpairing with the subwoofer.SubwooferPress PAIRING  on the rear panel of the subwooferusing a pointed object.When pairing is performed, “COMPLETE” isdisplayed on the main unit for 2 seconds and thePAIRING indicator  on the subwoofer lights up.To cancel pairingChange the S-AIR IDs of the main unit and thesubwoofer to different S-AIR IDs.To stop the pairing operation midwayIt takes a few seconds to complete the pairing of the mainunit and subwoofer after pressing PAIRING  on therear panel of the subwoofer in step 4.You can undo the pairing setting before completing thepairing.If you have done the pairing operation of only the mainunit, repeat  to  of step 4 again.If you have done the pairing operation of both the mainunit and subwoofer, repeat  to  of step 4 and pressPAIRING  on the rear panel of the subwoofer.TipYou can also pair the main unit with optional sub units. For detailson turning on the pairing function, refer to the OperatingInstructions supplied with the sub unit.If the S-AIR connection is unstableSince the S-AIR product uses radio waves that share thesame frequency (2.4 GHz) as other wireless systems, suchas wireless LAN or Bluetooth devices, interference orpoor transmission may result if you use other wirelessdevices near the system.In this case, the connection may be improved bychanging the RF CHANGE (Radio Frequency Change)setting on the main unit.1 Press SYSTEM MENU .2 Press /  repeatedly until “S-AIR” appears, thenpress ENTER .3 Press /  repeatedly until “RF CHANGE” appears,then press ENTER .4 Press /  repeatedly to select the desiredsetting.The default setting is underlined.AUTONormally select this setting. The main unit changesthe RF CHANGE setting to “ON” or “OFF”automatically.ONThe main unit transmits sound by searching for thebest channel for transmission.OFFThe main unit transmits sound using a fixed channelfor transmission. When you select this setting, selectthe S-AIR ID that provides the best connection.5 Press ENTER  to exit the system menu.Turning the subwoofer on/off in syncwith the main unitWhen the subwoofer is on or in power save mode, press/  on the main unit to begin using the system.
