SECTION 1
SERVICING NOTES
UNLEADED SOLDER
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-
free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with
the lead free mark due to their particular size)
: LEAD FREE MARK
Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
• Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40 °C higher
than ordinary solder.
Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.
Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to
about 350 °C.
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if
the heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
• Strong viscosity
Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to flow)
than ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges
occur such as on IC pins, etc.
• Usable with ordinary solder
It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may
also be added to ordinary solder.
NOTE OF REPLACING THE IC501, IC551, IC601,
IC801 AND IC802 ON THE MAIN BOARD
IC501, IC551, IC601, IC801 and IC802 on the MAIN board can-
not exchange with single. When these parts on the MAIN board are
damaged, exchange the entire mounted board.
NOTE OF REPLACING THE IC402 ON THE CHARGER
BOARD
IC402 on the CHARGER board cannot exchange with single.
When this part on the CHARGER board is damaged, exchange the
entire mounted board.

SECTION 2
GENERAL This section is extracted
from instruction manual.
When the rechargeable
battery is low
When the rechargeable battery is low, short beeps
sound from the unit for 8 seconds and the
POWER indicator blinks slowly.
When the battery level is getting lower, a long
beep sounds from the unit for 2 seconds and the
POWER indicator blinks quickly, and all
operations are stopped. Move the POWER switch
to “OFF” in this case.
[Tips
When the battery runs out, you can supply the power to
the headphones in one of the following ways:
• Connect the headphones to the AC power adaptor by
following the steps shown in “Charge the
headphones.”
You can use the headphones while charging.
• Use the supplied connecting cord with battery case.
See “How to use the connecting cord with battery
case” for details.
Using your AC power
adaptor abroad
You can use your AC power adaptor in any
country or area that uses 100 V to 240 V AC,
50/60 Hz, by connecting a plug adaptor. If the
country you visit employs a different shaped
socket, use the correct plug adaptor.
Consult your nearest travel bureau for the type of
plug adaptor needed for your trip.
Listening to music
1Connect the headphones to the AV
equipment.
* “WALKMAN” and “WALKMAN” logo are
registered trademarks of Sony Corporation.
Notes
• When connecting the cord, insert the plug into the
jack until the green portion of the plug disappears.
• To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, not
the cord, as the inner conductors may break.
2Turn on the power on the right side of the
headphones.
The POWER indicator lights up in blue, and a
short beep sounds from the unit.
3Put on the headphones.
After confirming the cord on the left and the
POWER switch on the right, put on the
headphones.
Adjust the ear pads so as to cover your ears.
4Start playing on the AV equipment
connected to the headphones.
Note
Playback is not available when there is no
power.
5Set the POWER switch of the
headphones to “OFF,” and then set the
POWER switch of the battery case to
“ON.”
The POWER indicator on the battery case
lights up green.
See steps 2 to 4 of “Listening to music” for
the following setting steps.
After use, set the POWER switch of both the
headphones and the battery case to “OFF.”
[Tips
• The power supply of the rechargeable battery is
consumed first, unless the battery runs out.
• If you connect and turn on the connecting cord with
the battery case in advance when the rechargeable
battery is low, you can use the headphones
uninterrupted, even after the battery in the
headphones runs out.
Notes
• The use of manganese batteries is not recommended,
since this type of battery has an extremely short
usage time.
• The battery case supplies the power to the
headphones for operation purposes only. It does not
charge the internal rechargeable battery in the
headphones.
• The POWER indicator of the battery case becomes
dim when the battery life is reaching the limit.
Replace the battery with new ones at the time.
• The supplied connecting cord with battery case is
only for these headphones. Do not connect to other
equipment.
After use
Turn off the power of the headphones.
