About sending RF signals
The transmitter starts sending RF signals automatically
when it detects an audio signal from the connected
component.
Notes
If hiss is heard, move closer to the transmitter.
You may hear some noise when you disconnect the
AC adaptor from the transmitter before turn off the
headphones.
If no signal or low signal is input
for about 4 minutes
If the transmitter does not detect an audio signal for
more than about 4 minutes, it will stop sending RF
signals, and the POWER indicator will blink for 1 minute,
and then turn off.
When the transmitter receives an audio signal again, it
starts sending the RF signals, and the POWER indicator
will light up green again.
You may not hear the beginning of the sound from the
headphones until the transmitter starts sending the RF
signals after detecting an audio signal.
RF signal transmission may stop when an extremely low
sound is input for about 4 minutes. If this happens,
raise the volume of the connected A/V component
within the range where the sound is not distorted, and
lower the volume of the headphones.

Tips for better reception
Receiving performance
This system utilizes very high frequency signals in the 800
MHz band so the receiving performance may deteriorate
due to the surroundings. The following examples illustrate
conditions that may reduce the reception range or cause
interference.
Inside a building with walls containing steel beams.
An area with many steel file cabinets, etc.
An area with many electrical appliances capable of
generating electromagnetic fields.
The transmitter is placed on a metal instrument.
An area facing a roadway.
Noise or interfering signals exist in the surroundings
due to radio transceivers in trucks, etc.
Noise or interfering signals exist in the surroundings
owing to wireless communication systems installed
along roadways.
Effective area of the transmitter
The optimum distance is up to approximately 100 m
without the system picking up some interference.
However, the distance may vary depending on the
surroundings and environment.
If the system picks up some noise within the above
mentioned distance, reduce the distance between the
transmitter and the headphones, or select another
channel.
When you use the headphones inside the effective area
of the transmitter, the transmitter can be placed in any
direction from the listener.
Even within the signal reception area, there are some
spots (dead spots) where the RF signal cannot be
received. This characteristic is inherent to RF signals,
and does not indicate malfunction. By slightly moving
the transmitter, location of the dead spot can be
changed.
Replacing the earpads
The earpads are replaceable. If the earpads become dirty
or worn out, replace them as illustrated below. The
earpads are not commercially available. You can order
replacements from the store where you purchased this
system, or at your nearest Sony dealer.
1 Remove the old earpad by pulling it out of the groove
on the housing.
2 Place the new earpad on the driver unit.
Hang the edge of the earpad on one side of the driver
unit’s groove edge, then turn the edge of earpad
around the driver unit as illustrated below.
When the earpad is securely inserted into the groove,
adjust the earpad to the vertical position.
Troubleshooting
If you run into any problems using this system, use the
following checklist. Should any problem persist, consult
your nearest Sony dealer.
