Tactile dot
Using the cord slider (see fig. -)
Move up and down to change the split position of the cord.
Installing the earbuds correctly (see fig. )
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.
If the earbuds do not fit your ears, try another size. When you change the earbuds, install
them firmly on the headphones to prevent the earbud from detaching and remaining in
your ear.
To check earbud sizes
The earbud sizes are distinguished by a line pattern (see fig. -).
To detach an earbud (see fig. -,)
While holding the headphone, twist the parts inside of the earbud and pull the earbud
off.
 Tip
If the earbud slips and cannot be detached, wrap it in a dry soft cloth.
To attach an earbud (see fig. -)
Push the parts inside of the earbud into the headphone until the projecting part of the
headphone is fully covered.
To clean the earbuds
Remove the earbuds from the headphones, and wash them with a mild detergent
solution.

If any dust or ear wax is inside the earbud, you may experience some listening
difficulties.

Listening with headphones at high volume may affect your hearing. For traffic safety,

Install the earbuds firmly onto the headphones. If an earbud accidentally detaches and
is left in your ear, it may cause injury.
Note on static electricity
In particularly dry air conditions, mild tingling may be felt on your ears. This is a result
of static electricity accumulated in the body, and not a malfunction of the headphones.
The effect can be minimized by wearing clothes made from natural materials.
Optional replacement earbuds can be ordered from your nearest Sony dealer.
