hear.

Each time the button is pressed, the function switches as following and is announced by the voice guidance.

Hint
Depending on the ambient condition and the type/volume of audio playback, the ambient sound may not be heard even when
using the Ambient Sound Mode. Do not use the headset in places where it would be dangerous if you are unable to hear ambient
sounds such as on a road with car and bicycle traffic.
If the headset is not worn properly, the Ambient Sound Mode may not work correctly. Wear the headset properly.
Ambient Sound Mode settings changed with the "Sony | Headphones Connect" app are stored in the headset. You can enjoy
music with the stored settings of the Ambient Sound Mode even when the headset is connected to other devices which do not
have the "Sony | Headphones Connect" app installed.
Note
If the CUSTOM button is set as the Google Assistant button, the noise canceling function and the Ambient Sound Mode cannot
be switched from the headset. You can also change the settings of the noise canceling function and the Ambient Sound Mode
with the "Sony | Headphones Connect" app.
