Instructions

Precautions

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 is 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.

On charging the unit

Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may cause fire, burns, injury, or electric shock.
- Do not attach metallic objects (such as stickers made of materials containing metal) to the wireless charger or the unit.
- When using wireless charging, remove the cover attached to the charging case, and do not place metallic objects (such as straps or clips containing metal) on the wireless charger.
- If something unusual occurs during wireless charging, such as unusual odor, unusual sound, smoke, overheating, or deformation, carefully and safely remove the unit from the wireless charger.
When you have medical electric devices such as pacemakers or defibrillators implanted, consult your doctor before using the wireless charging pad.
Radio waves may affect the operations of the medical electric devices.
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.

On the earbud tips (Noise isolation earbud tips)

Earbud tips are fitted within the ear, so there is an increased risk of irritation of the ear canal. If you experience any discomfort, discontinue use.
Earbud tips are consumables and may deteriorate or break after long-term use and storage. If the tips deteriorate or become damaged, the audio performance such as sound quality and noise canceling will become compromised. Replace them regularly.
Also, if an earbud tip becomes damaged, such as cracking, peeling, chipping, or mesh becomes torn, the earbud tip or part of it may remain in your ear and cause injury or illness. If you see any damage, be sure to replace the tip.
Avoid washing with water, wet wipes, and the use of organic solvents such as alcohol, as these can cause premature deterioration.

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
