Identifying the unit with a
specific S-AIR main unit
(Pairing operation)
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.
Before pairing

user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the
following measures:
 Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
 Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
 Connect the equipment into an
outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is
connected.
 Consult the dealer or an

Features
The AIR-RM10 is an “S-AIR”
compatible product.
Using this unit, you can operate the
S-AIR transmitter product (called
S-AIR main unit) to select a track to be
played on the S-AIR receiver product
(called S-AIR sub unit) and check
information on the display of this
remote commander, such as a track
name, which is sent from the S-AIR
main unit.
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
“MULTI SOURCE” mode. That will
allow you to select and to listen to
multiple sources sent from the S-AIR
main unit to the S-AIR sub units.
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
environment. Find a location where
transmission between the unit and
the S-AIR main unit is most
effective, and install the unit and the
S-AIR main unit there.
On safety
 Should any solid object or liquid get
into the unit, and have it checked by
qualified personnel before operating
it again.
On placement
 Do not place the unit in an inclined
position or in locations that are
extremely hot, cold, dusty, dirty,
humid or lacking adequate
ventilation, subject to vibration,
direct sunlight or bright light.
 Be careful when placing the unit on
surfaces that have been specially
treated (for example, with wax, oil,
polish) as staining or discoloration
of the surface may result.
On heat buildup
Heat buildup in the unit during
operation is normal and is not cause
for alarm.
Cleaning the cabinet
Clean the cabinet with a soft dry cloth.
Do not use any type of abrasive pad,
scouring powder, or solvent, such as
thinner, benzine, or alcohol.

Notes on using the remote commander
 With normal use, the batteries should last
for about five months.
 Do not mix old batteries with new ones or
mix different types of batteries.
 If you do not use the remote commander
for a long period of time, remove the
batteries to avoid damage from battery
leakage and corrosion.

S-AIR (Sony Audio
Interactive Radio frequency)
Recent times have seen the rapid
spread of DVD media, Digital
Broadcasting, and other highquality 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
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.
Blinks when the pairing operation
setting is in process: turns on

To identify the unit with a
specific sub unit (Coupling
operation)
If you have two or more sub units, you
can listen to different sound sources on
each sub unit by selecting the MULTI
SOURCE mode.
In MULTI SOURCE mode, since each
sub unit can receive different sound
sources from the main unit, this unit
may not display the correct sub unit
sound source information.
To prevent this, differentiate such sub
units from one another by identifying
(coupling) with the unit.
Make sure the sub units and
this unit have all established
connection with the S-AIR main
unit.
Aim the unit at one of the S-AIR
sub units and press COUPLING.

Check that “CPL” blinks, and
then stays on in the display to
indicate coupling was
successful.
