Initializing the headset to restore factory settings
If the headset does not operate correctly even after resetting, initialize the headset.
-
Set the headset units into the charging case.
Leave the charging case lid open.
-
Press and hold the initialize button on the back of the charging case for about 15 seconds or more.
After about 15 seconds, the indicator (orange) on the charging case flashes for about 5 seconds.
-
Release your finger within 5 seconds after the indicator (orange) on the charging case starts flashing.
When the initializing is complete, the indicator (green) on the charging case flashes 4 times.
This operation resets volume settings, etc. to the factory settings, and deletes all pairing information. In this case, delete the pairing information for the headset from the connected device and then pair them again.
If the headset does not operate correctly even after initializing, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
