Utilizing the AI Noise Canceling  
Precautions  
e headphones contain a noise canceling circuit.

Connect the headphones to the AV equipment.  
AI Noise Canceling  
What is noise canceling?  
AI Noise Canceling is a useful function that automatically selects one  
of the noise canceling modes. is function provides the most effective  
noise canceling mode by immediately analyzing ambient sound  
components when the AI NC button is pressed.  
e noise canceling circuit actually senses outside noise with built-in  
microphones and sends an equal-but-opposite canceling signal to the  
headphones.  
When connecting to dual or  
stereo mini jacks of in-flight music  
services.  
Operating Instructions  
Manual de instrucciones  
Press the AI NC button.  
• e noise canceling effect may not be pronounced in a very quiet  
environment, or some noise may be heard.  
• e noise canceling effect may vary depending on how you wear the  
headphones.  
• e noise canceling function works for noise in the low frequency  
band primarily. Although noise is reduced, it is not canceled  
completely.  
• When you use the headphones in a train or a car, noise may occur  
depending on street conditions.  
• Mobile phones may cause interference and noise. Should this occur,  
locate the headphones further away from the mobile phone.  
When you press the AI NC button and the POWER switch is set to  
“ON”, beep sounds come from the headphones to inform you that  
the unit has started analyzing ambient sound components (approx. 3  
seconds).

During analysis, sound reproduction from the unit is stopped and the  
POWER indicator blinks.  
When analysis is completed, the most effective noise canceling mode is  
set automatically, and sound reproduction from the headphones starts.  
Notes on usage  
When connecting to the stereo  
mini jack of a WALKMAN*, etc.  
• Clean the headphones with a soſt dry cloth.  
• Do not leave the plug dirty otherwise the sound may be distorted.  
• Be sure to consult a Sony dealer when the earpads become dirty or  
damaged, or when the headphones require repair work.  
• Do not leave the stereo headphones in a location subject to direct  
sunlight, heat or moisture.

• When connecting the cord, insert the plug into the jack until the green  
portion of the plug disappears.  
Noise canceling mode types  
NC Mode A: Noise mainly in an airplane is effectively reduced.  
NC Mode B: Noise mainly in a bus or a train is effectively reduced.  
NC Mode C: Noise mainly found in an office environment (PC, copier,  
air ventilation, etc.) is effectively reduced.  
Notes on headphones  
Preventing hearing damage  
Avoid using headphones at high volume. Hearing experts advise  
against continuous, loud and extended play. If you experience a ringing  
in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use.  
Tips  
English  
• When the power of the headphones is turned on, NC Mode A is set. (See  
“Noise canceling mode types” for details about NC Mode A.)  
• Press the AI NC button again to reset the noise canceling mode if ambient  
noise has changed, such as when you move outdoors from a room.  
• To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, not the cord, as the inner  
conductors may break.  
Do not use headphones while driving and cycling, etc.  
As headphones reduce outside sounds, they may cause a traffic  
accident. Also, avoid listening with your headphones in situations  
where hearing must not be impaired, for example, a railroad crossing, a  
construction site, etc.

for safety  
Press the MONITOR button while the POWER switch is set to “ON”,  
playback silences, and you can hear the surrounding environment.  
To cancel this function, press the MONITOR button again.  
In particularly dry air conditions, noise or sound skipping may occur,

electricity accumulated in the body, and not a malfunction of the  
headphones.  
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not  
expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.  
e effect can be minimized by wearing clothes made from natural  
materials.  
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not open the  
cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.  
e validity of the CE marking is restricted to only those countries

is equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits  
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. ese  
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful  
interference in a residential installation. is equipment generates, uses  
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used  
in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference  
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that  
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment  
does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which  
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is  
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the  
following measures:  
The noise canceling effect is not sufficient  
• e noise canceling function is effective in low frequency ranges such  
as airplanes, trains, or offices (near air-conditioning, etc.) and is not as  
effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices.

• Aſter you turn on the power of the headphones, you may hear a slight  
hiss. is is the operating sound of the noise canceling function, not a  
malfunction.

against your ears may result in eardrum damage. Avoid using the  
headphones where they are liable to be struck by people or other objects,  
such as a ball, etc. Pressing the headphones against your ears may produce  
a diaphragm click sound. is is not a malfunction.
