Pairing and connecting with other BLUETOOTH devices

It is necessary to pair BLUETOOTH devices to establish a BLUETOOTH connection. When pairing the headset with a BLUETOOTH device, place the BLUETOOTH device within 1 meter of the headset.

  1. Enter pairing mode on the headset.

Press and hold the POWER button for more than 7 seconds.
Make sure that the indicator flashes blue and red alternately after you release the button.
Note

  • If pairing is not established within about 5 minutes, pairing mode will be cancelled and the headset will turn off. In this case, start over from step 1.

  1. Perform the pairing procedure on the BLUETOOTH device to search for this headset.

“MDR-AS700BT” will be displayed on the list of detected devices on the screen of the BLUETOOTH device. If “MDR-AS700BT” is not displayed, repeat from step 1.

  1. Select “MDR-AS700BT” on the screen on the BLUETOOTH device to pair both devices.

If passkey input is required on the display of a BLUETOOTH device, input “0000.”
A Passkey may be called a “Passcode,” a “PIN code,” a “PIN number,” or a “Password.”

  1. Make the BLUETOOTH connection from the BLUETOOTH device.

Depending on the BLUETOOTH device, the headset may be connected with the device automatically as soon as they are paired.
Tip
Notes

  • For details, refer to the manual supplied with the BLUETOOTH device.

  • When pairing with a BLUETOOTH device that cannot display a list of detected devices or that has no display, you may pair the device by setting both the headset and the BLUETOOTH device to pairing mode. At this time, if passkey is set besides “0000” on the BLUETOOTH device, pairing cannot be done with the headset.

  • Once BLUETOOTH devices are paired, there is no need for pairing again, except in the following cases:

  • Pairing information is deleted after repair, etc.

  • The headset is paired with 9 or more devices. The headset can be paired with up to 8 devices; if a new device is paired after 8 devices have been paired, the device whose latest connection time is the oldest among the 8 paired devices is replaced by the new one.

  • When recognition of the headset by the device to be connected is deleted.

  • The headset is initialized. All pairing information is deleted.
