Steps to use Bluetooth communication

You can listen to sound on a Bluetooth audio device (*1) (e.g. headphones, car audios, compact stereos) by sending data from the Walkman.
Your Walkman supports AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile). You can control the basic operations of the Walkman wirelessly from the connected Bluetooth audio device (*2) such as Bluetooth headphones.
(*1) The Bluetooth audio devices need to support A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile).
(*2) The Bluetooth audio devices need to support AVRCP.
Hint

  • Your Walkman can send song information such as song title, etc., to the Bluetooth audio devices that support AVRCP Ver. 1.3. Certain devices can also receive other information of the Walkman, such as the battery status or the setting of the Walkman. However, the information that a Bluetooth audio device can receive varies by the device.

  • You can wirelessly control the volume of certain devices using the VOL +/- button of your Walkman.
