This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTE: This unit has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This unit 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 unit does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the unit off and on, the 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 unit and receiver.
Connect the unit into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This unit must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
This unit complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines. This unit has very low levels of RF energy. This conformity statement is only applicable to the YY2977.
For customers in Canada This unit contains licence-exempt transmitter(s)/receiver(s) that comply with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s licence-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This unit may not cause interference; and (2) This unit must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the unit.
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. The unit has been tested and found to comply with ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets RSS-102 of the ISED radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This conformity statement is only applicable to the YY2977.

The two-dimensional code or the URL on the cover will help you access the help guide that describes useful notes or procedures in details.
On water resistant of the unit

The charging case and the USB transceiver are not water resistant.
Unless the unit is used correctly, water may get into the unit and cause fire, electrocution, or malfunctions.
Note the following cautions carefully and use the unit correctly.

To maintain water resistant performance Carefully note the precautions below to ensure proper use of the unit.

Do not splash water forcibly into the sound output holes.
Do not drop the unit into water, and do not use underwater.
Do not allow the unit to remain wet in a cold environment, as the water may freeze. To prevent malfunction, make sure to wipe off any water after use.
Do not place the unit in water or use it in a humid place such as a bathroom.
Do not drop the unit or expose it to mechanical shock. Doing so may deform or damage the unit, resulting in deterioration of water resistance performance.

On BLUETOOTH® communications

Microwaves emitting from a Bluetooth device may affect the operation of electronic medical devices. Turn off this unit and other Bluetooth devices in the following locations, as it may cause an accident: in hospitals, near priority seating in trains, locations where inflammable gas is present, near automatic doors, or near fire alarms.
The audio playback on this unit may be delayed from that on the transmitting device, due to the characteristics of Bluetooth wireless technology. As a result, the sound may not be in sync with the image when viewing movies or playing games.

On charging the unit

Be sure to use the supplied USB Type-C cable.

Notes on wearing the unit

After use, remove the headphones slowly.
Because the earbud tips achieve a tight seal in the ears, forcibly pressing them in or quickly pulling them out can result in eardrum damage. When wearing the earbud tips, the speaker diaphragm may produce a click sound. This is not a malfunction.

Other notes

If you experience discomfort while using the unit, stop using it immediately.
If you have any questions or problems concerning this unit that are not covered in this manual, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
