You can adjust the cord length by winding the cord on the cord adjuster.
(The cord can be wound to the cord adjuster up to 50 cm. If you wind more, the cord
comes off from the cord adjuster easily.)
1
Wind the cord.
2
Push cord into slot hole to secure in place.
Note
Do not wind the plug or split section of the cord, as it will strain the cord and may cause a wire break.
How to use the extension cord (see fig. )
Insert the stereo mini plug fully into the jack until you hear a click.

3
Adjust the earbud to fit snugly in your ear.
How to install the earbuds correctly (see fig. )
If the earbuds do not fit your ears correctly, low-bass sound may not be heard. To enjoy
better sound quality, change the earbuds to another size, or adjust the earbuds position to
sit on your ears comfortably and fit your ears snugly.
If the earbuds do not fit your ears, try another size. Confirm the size of the earbuds by
checking color inside (see fig. -).
When you change the earbuds, turn to install them firmly on the headphones to prevent
the earbud from detaching and remaining in your ear.

Precautions
Please keep your headphones clean at all times especially inside the rubber earbud.
(see fig. )
If any dust or ear wax inside the earbud, you may experience some listening difficulties.
During dry weather, you may experience mild pain in your ears. This is not by
malfunction of the headphones, but is due to static electricity accumulated in your
body. It is reduced by wearing clothes made of natural materials that do not generate
static electricity so easily.
Listening with headphones at high volume may affect your hearing. For traffic safety,
do not use while driving or cycling.
The earbuds may deteriorate due to long-term storage or use.
Optional replacement earbuds can be ordered from your nearest Sony dealer.
