Bluetooth wireless technology  
operates within a range of about  
10 meters (about 30 feet).  
Connecting two devices as  
necessary is common, but some  
devices can be connected to  
multiple devices at the same  
time. You do not need to use a  
cable for connection, nor is it  
necessary for the devices to face  
one another, such is the case  
with infrared technology. For  
example, you can use such a  
device in a bag or pocket.

Caution  
If the headset detects a problem while charging, the headset indicator (red) may  
turn off, although charging is not complete.  
Check for the following causes:  
– Ambient temperature exceeds the range of 0 °C – 40 °C (32 °F – 104 °F).  
– ere is a problem with the battery.  
In this case, charge again within the above-mentioned temperature range.  
If the problem persists, consult your nearest Sony dealer.  
Notes  
If the battery is not used for a long time, battery may be quickly depleted,  
however, aſter a few recharges, battery life will improve.  
If the life of the built-in rechargeable battery drops to half the normal length, the  
battery should be replaced. Consult your nearest Sony dealer for replacement of  
the rechargeable battery.  
Avoid exposure to temperature extremes, direct sunlight, moisture, sand, dust or  
mechanical shock. Never leave in a car parked in the sun.  
Use only the supplied AC power adaptor. Do not use any other AC power  
adaptor.

Additional Information  
Precautions  
e sensitivity of the Bluetooth  
communication will improve by  
turning the direction of the built-in  
aerial to the connected Bluetooth  
device.  
e communication distance shortens  
when the obstacles are between the  
aerial of the connected device and this  
product.  
On Bluetooth communication  
Bluetooth wireless technology operates  
within a range of about 10 meters  
(about 30 feet).  
Maximum communication range  
may vary depending on obstacles  
(human body, metal, wall, etc.) or  
electromagnetic environment.  
e following conditions may cause  
noise, sound break or playback speed  
change.

The transmitter  
– When using inside the metal bag.  
– When using inside the backpack or  
shoulder bag.  
– A device using 2.4 GHz frequency,  
such as a wireless LAN device,  
cordless telephone, or microwave  
oven, is in use near this product.  
Because Bluetooth devices and  
wireless LAN (IEEE802.11 b/g) use  
the same frequency, microwave  
interference may occur and resulting  
in communication speed deterioration,  
noise, or invalid connection if this  
product is used near a wireless LAN  
device. In such a case, perform the  
following.
