Notes on using on the airplane
• The supplied plug adaptor can be connected to the dual or
stereo mini jacks of in-flight music services.
• Do not use the headphones when use of electronic
equipment is prohibited or when use of personal
headphones for in-flight music services is prohibited.
If you have any questions or problems concerning the
system that are not covered in this manual, please consult
the nearest Sony dealer.
After listening to music
Turn off the power of the headphones.
Notes
• The noise canceling function is only effective for noise in the
low frequency band. Although noise is reduced, it is not
canceled completely.
• Do not cover the microphone of the headphones with your
hands. The noise canceling function may not work properly.
• The noise canceling function may not work properly unless
the headphones are put on firmly.
• You can use the headphones even without turning on the
power. In this case, the noise canceling function is not active,
and the headphones operate as passive headphones.
• After you turn on the power of the headphones, you may hear
a slight hiss. This is the operating sound of the noise canceling
function, not a malfunction.
• In a quiet place, or depending on certain noises, you may feel
that the noise canceling function is not effective, or that noise
is accentuated. In this case, turn off the power of the
headphones.
• Interference noise can occur from nearby cellular phones.
Should this occur, locate the headphones further away from
the cellular phone(s).
Using the clip
You can fasten the battery box by its clip on a shirt pocket.
When carrying the headphones
The headphones and the battery box can also be separately
stored in the partitioned carrying case (supplied).
Pr
• Clean the headphones with a soft dry cloth.
• Do not leave the jack plug dirty otherwise the sound may
be distorted.
• Be sure to bring the headphones to the Sony dealer when
requiring a change of earbuds or repair work.
• Do not leave the headphones in a location subject to direct
sunlight, heat or moisture.
• Do not subject the headphones to excessive shock.
• Handle the driver units carefully.
• To clean the earbuds, first remove them from the
headphones, and then clean them with water and mild
detergent. After cleaning, dry each earbud carefully
before use.
• The earbuds will need to be replaced from time to time. If
they are worn out by daily use or longtime storage,
replace them with new ones.
• If you fell drowsy or sick while using these headphones,
stop use immediately.
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.
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.
Troubleshooting
No sound
• Check the connection of the headphones and the AV
equipment.
• Check that the connected AV equipment is turned on.
• Turn up the volume of the connected AV equipment.
• Replace the battery.
Muffled sound
• Turn down the volume of the connected AV equipment.
• Replace the battery.
Selecting the
earbuds
If the earbuds do not fit your ears correctly, low-bass sound
may not be heard. To enjoy better sound quality, change the
earbuds to another size, or adjust the earbuds position to sit
on your ears comfortably and fit your ears snugly. The M
size earbuds are attached to the headphones before
shipment. If you feel the M size earbuds do not suit your
ears, replace them with the supplied S or L size earbuds.
When you change the earbuds, install them firmly on the
headphones to prevent the earbud from detaching and
remaining in your ear.

entertainment. Ambient sound is reduced by synthesizing
with a sound in opposite phase produced by the noise
canceling circuit.

closed type headphone structure delivers deep bass sound.
•3 sizes soft silicon rubber earbuds are used for stable and
comfortable fit in the ears.
• Operates as passive headphones when noise canceling
circuit is not activated.
• Built-in monitor function to hear surrounding sound
without taking off the headphones.
• Plug adaptor is supplied to connect directly to stereo or
dual jack of in-flight music services.

Si les oreillettes ne s’adaptent pas bien à vos oreilles, vous
n’entendrez peut-être pas les sons très graves. Pour profiter
d’un son de meilleure qualité, changez la taille des
oreillettes ou réglez-les afin qu’elles s’adaptent bien à la
forme de vos oreilles et qu’elles soient confortablement
installées. Les oreillettes de taille M sont déjà fixées sur les
écouteurs à l’achat. Si vous constatez que les oreillettes de
taille M ne conviennent pas à vos oreilles, remplacez-les par
les oreillettes de taille S ou L fournies.
Lorsque vous changez les oreillettes, fixez-les correctement
sur les écouteurs pour éviter qu’elles se ne détachent et
