Notes about CD-R/CD-RW/DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD+R/DVD+RW
In some cases, CD-R/CD-RW/DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD+R/DVD+RW cannot be played on this system
due to the recording quality or physical condition of the disc, or the characteristics of the recording
device and authoring software.
The disc will not play if it has not been correctly finalized. For more information, refer to the operating
instructions for the recording device.
Note that some playback functions may not work with some DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs, even if they have
been correctly finalized. In this case, view the disc by normal playback. Also some DATA-CDs/
DATA-DVDs created in Packet Write format cannot be played.
Music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies
This product is designed to play back discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard.
Recently, various music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies are marketed by some
record companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are some that do not conform to the
CD standard and may not be playable by this product.
Note on DualDiscs
A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which mates DVD recorded material on one side with digital
audio material on the other side.
However, since the audio material side does not conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback
on this product is not guaranteed.
About Multi Session CD
This system can play a Multi Session CD when an MP3 file is contained in the first session. Any
subsequent MP3 files recorded in later sessions can also be played back.
This system can play a Multi Session CD when a JPEG image file is contained in the first session.
Any subsequent JPEG image files recorded in later sessions can also be played back.
If MP3 files and JPEG image files in music CD format or video CD format are recorded in the first
session, only the first session will be played back.
Region code
Your system has a region code printed on the bottom of the control unit and will only play a DVD
labeled with the same region code.
A DVD VIDEO labeled will also play on this system.
If you try to play any other DVD VIDEO, the message [Playback prohibited by area limitations.] will
appear on the TV screen. Depending on the DVD VIDEO, no region code indication may be given even
though playing the DVD VIDEO is prohibited by area restrictions.
Note about playback operations of a DVD and VIDEO CD
Some playback operations of a DVD and VIDEO CD may be intentionally set by software producers.
Since this system will play a DVD or VIDEO CD according to the disc contents the software producers
designed, some playback features may not be available. Be sure to read the operating instructions
supplied with the DVD or VIDEO CD.

Installing the speakers on the wall
Before installing the speakers on the wall, you need to decide which surround speakers connection you
want. You can connect your surround speakers in 2 different ways.
A Connect surround speakers to S-AIR surround amplifier (wireless connection)
B Connect surround speakers to subwoofer (wired connection)
Sony recommends you to use wireless connection for this system. For details, see “Step 2: Connecting
the System” (page 19).
The surround speakers supplied are for wireless connection. If you want to change to wired connection,
you need to change the surround speaker cords. For details on changing the speaker cords, see step
2 to 4 of “Installing the speakers to the wall” below.
Caution
Contact a screw shop or installer regarding the wall material or screws to be used.
Use screws that are suitable for the wall material and strength. As a plaster board wall is especially fragile, attach
the screws securely to a beam and fasten them to the wall. Install the speakers on a vertical and flat wall where
reinforcement is applied.
Sony is not responsible for accident or damage caused by improper installation, insufficient wall strength or
improper screw installation, natural calamity, etc.

you do not intend to use it for an extended period of
time. To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug,
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 cabinet
becomes hot to touch. This is not a malfunction.
However, touching the cabinet should be avoided. Do
not place the control 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,
the control unit can overheat and malfunction.
Do not place the control unit on surfaces (rugs,
blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies)
that may block the ventilation slots.
• Do not install the control 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 control unit in an inclined position.
It is designed to be operated in a horizontal position
only.
Keep the control unit and discs away from component
with strong magnets, such as microwave ovens, or
large loudspeakers.
• Do not place anything on the control unit and the
subwoofer.
• If you use more than one set of S-AIR products,

If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture
may condense on the lenses inside the control unit.
Should this occur, the system may not operate
properly. In this case, remove the disc and leave the
system turned on for about half an hour until the
moisture evaporates.
• When you move the system, take out any disc. If you
don’t, the disc may be damaged.
• If anything falls into the cabinet, unplug the
subwoofer and have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
On adjusting volume
• Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section
with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you
do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level
section is suddenly played.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
Clean the cabinets of the surround amplifier only with
a soft dry cloth. Do not use any type of abrasive pad,
scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or
benzene.
On cleaning discs, disc/lens
cleaners
Do not use cleaning discs or disc/lens cleaners
(including wet or spray types). These may cause the
apparatus to malfunction.
On your TV’s colour
• If the speakers should cause the TV screen to have
colour irregularity, turn off the TV then turn it on
after 15 to 30 minutes. If colour irregularity should
persist, place the speakers further away from the TV
set.

About S-AIR function
As the S-AIR function transmits sound by radio
waves, sound may skip when radio waves are
obstructed. This is a characteristic of radio waves and
is not malfunction.
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 function 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
following 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 transmission distance differs depending on the
usage environment. Find a location where
transmission between the S-AIR main unit and S-AIR
sub unit is most effective, and install the S-AIR main
unit and S-AIR sub unit there.
About the surround amplifier
The nameplate is located on the side exterior.
On handling discs
To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its
edge. Do not touch the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or
heat sources such as hot air ducts, or leave it in
a car parked in direct sunlight as the
temperature may rise considerably inside the
car.
After playing, store the disc in its case.
On cleaning
Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning
cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center out.
Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for vinyl LPs.
This system can only play back a standard
circular disc. Using neither standard nor circular
discs (e.g., card, heart, or star shape) may cause
a malfunction.
Do not use a disc that has a commercially
available accessory attached, such as a label or
ring.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: This system is capable of holding a still
video image or on-screen display image on your
television screen indefinitely. If you leave the still
video image or on-screen display image displayed
on your TV for an extended period of time you risk
permanent damage to your television screen.
Projection televisions are especially susceptible to
this.

Picture
Symptom Remedy
There is no picture. The video connecting cords are not connected securely.
The video connecting cords are damaged.
The control unit is not connected to the correct TV input jack (page 26).
The video input on the TV is not set so that you can view pictures from
the system.
Check the output method on your system (page 36).
You have set progressive format but your TV cannot accept the signal in
progressive format. In this case, return the setting to interlace format (the
default setting) (page 37).
Even if your TV is compatible with progressive format (525p) signals,
the image may be affected when you set progressive format. In this case,
return the setting to interlace format (the default setting) (page 37).
Re-connect the connecting cord securely.
The control unit is connected to an input device that is not HDCP (high-
bandwidth digital content protection) compliant (“HDMI” on the front
panel display does not light up).
If the HDMI OUT jack is used for video output, change the type of video
signal output from the HDMI OUT jack. It may solve the problem
(page 36).
Connect the TV and the control unit using a video jack other than the
HDMI OUT, and switch the TV’s input to the connected video input so
that you can see the on-screen displays. Change the type of video signal
output from the HDMI OUT jack, and switch the TV’s input back to
HDMI. If the picture still does not appear, repeat the steps and try other
options.
Picture noise appears. The disc is dirty or flawed.
If the picture output from your system goes through your VCR to get to
your TV, the copy-protection signal applied to some DVD programs
could affect picture quality. If you still experience problems even when
you connect your control unit directly to your TV, try connecting your
control unit to your TV’s video input (except for the HDMI jack)
(page 26).
Even though you set the aspect ratio in
[TV TYPE] of [VIDEO SETUP], the
picture does not fill the TV screen.
The aspect ratio on the disc is fixed.
Colour irregularity occurs on the TV
screen.
The subwoofer and the front speakers in this system are magnetically
shielded to prevent magnetic leakage. However, some leakage may occur,
as a high-strength magnet is employed. If this happens, check the following
items:
If the speakers are used with a CRT-based TV or projector, install the
speakers at least 0.3 m from the TV set.
If the colour irregularity persists, turn off the TV set once, then turn it on
after 15 to 30 minutes.
If howling occurs, reposition the speakers further away from the TV set.
Make sure that no magnetic object (magnetic latch on a TV stand, health
care device, toy, etc.) is placed near the speakers.

Digital Cinema Auto Calibration
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration was developed
by Sony to automatically measure and adjust the
speaker settings to your listening environment in
a short period of time.
Dolby Digital
This movie theatre sound format is more
advanced than Dolby Surround Pro Logic. In
this format, the surround speakers output stereo
sound with an expanded frequency range, and a
subwoofer channel for deep bass is
independently provided. This format is also
called “5.1” with the subwoofer channel
designed as the 0.1 channel (since it functions
only when a deep bass effect is needed). All six
channels in this format 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 5 full-bandwidth
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 sounds or tonal colourations.
x Movie mode
The Movie mode is for use 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.
x Music mode
The Music mode is for use with any stereo music
recordings, and provides a wide and deep sound
space.

DTS
Digital audio compression technology
developed by DTS, Inc. This technology
conforms to 5.1-channel surround. This format
comprises of stereo rear channel and there is
discrete subwoofer channel in this format. DTS
provides the same 5.1 discrete channels of high
quality digital audio. The good channel
separation is realized due to the all channel data
being recorded discretely and processed in
digitally.
HDMI (High-definition multimedia
interface)
HDMI is an interface that supports both video
and audio on a single digital connection,
allowing you to enjoy high quality digital
picture and sound. The HDMI specification
supports HDCP (high-bandwidth digital
contents protection), a copy protection
technology that incorporates coding technology
for digital video signals.
Interlace format
(Interlaced scanning)
The Interlace format is the NTSC standard
method for displaying TV images at 30 frames
per second. Each frame is scanned twice -
alternately between the even numbered scanning
lines and then odd numbered scanning lines, at
60 times per second.
Parental Control
A DVD function to limit playback of the disc by
users of a predetermined age according to the
limitation level in each country. The limitation
varies from disc to disc; when it is activated,
playback is completely prohibited, violent
scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes,
etc.
Progressive format
(Sequential scanning)
In contrast to the Interlace format, the
progressive format can reproduce 50 - 60 frames
per second by reproducing all scanning lines
(525 lines for the NTSC system). The overall
picture quality increases and still images, text
and horizontal lines appear sharper.
S-AIR
(Sony Audio Interactive Radio
frequency)
Recent times have seen the rapid spread of DVD
media, Digital Broadcasting, and other high-
quality media.
To ensure that the subtle nuances of these high-
quality 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 the
EZW-RT10/EZW-T100.
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.
