Listening to music from a device via a Bluetooth connection

If your Bluetooth device supports the following profiles, you can enjoy listening to music and control the device from your headset via a Bluetooth connection.

  • A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile)
    You can enjoy high-quality music wirelessly.
  • AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile)
    You can adjust the volume, etc.

The operation may vary depending on the Bluetooth device. Refer to the operating instructions supplied with the Bluetooth device.

  1. Put the headset units into your ears.

    See “Wearing the headset” for how to wear the headset in your ears.

  2. Connect the headset to a Bluetooth device.
  3. Operate the Bluetooth device to start playback and adjust the volume to a moderate level.
  4. Press the button on the left or right headset unit to adjust the volume.

    • Increase the volume: Press the button on the right headset unit quickly 4 or more times. As you repeatedly press the button, a headset operation beep is emitted every 0.4 seconds and the volume increases by 1 level with each beep, regardless of the number of times you press the button.

    • Lower the volume: Press the button on the left headset unit quickly 4 or more times. As you repeatedly press the button, a headset operation beep is emitted every 0.4 seconds and the volume decreases by 1 level with each beep, regardless of the number of times you press the button.

    When the volume reaches the maximum or minimum, an alarm sounds.

Hint

  • The headset supports SCMS-T content protection. You can enjoy music and other audio on the headset from a device such as a portable TV that supports SCMS-T content protection.
  • Depending on the Bluetooth device, it may be necessary to adjust the volume or set the audio output setting on the device.
  • The volume can also be adjusted on the “Sony | Sound Connect” app.
    The headset volume during a call and during music playback can be independently adjusted. Even if you change the volume during music playback, the volume of a call does not change.
  • You can also listen to music by removing only one headset unit from the charging case and putting it into your ear.
    If only the right headset unit is worn in your ear, use the button on the right headset unit to play music.
    If only the left headset unit is worn in your ear, operate the connected device to play music.
    When you are listening to music with only one headset unit, if you put the other headset unit into the other ear, you can listen to music with both headset units.

Note

  • You cannot adjust the volume with the headset when no music is playing.
  • If the communication condition is poor, the Bluetooth device may react incorrectly to the operation on the headset.
