*6 LDAC is an audio coding technology developed by Sony that enables the transmission of High-Resolution (Hi-Res) Audio content, even over a BLUETOOTH connection. Unlike other BLUETOOTH compatible coding technologies such as SBC, it operates without any downconversion of the Hi-Res Audio content*7, and allows approximately three times more data*8 than those other technologies to be transmitted over a BLUETOOTH wireless network with unprecedented sound quality, by means of efficient coding and optimized packetization.
*7 Excluding DSD format contents.
*8 In comparison with SBC when the bitrate of 990 kbps (96/48 kHz) or 909 kbps (88.2/44.1 kHz) is selected.
Note
Depending on the network environment, there may be an interruption at the high bitrate transmission.

*9 Measured value acquired by playing our specified music source with the volume level of the unit set to 21, the sound mode set to STANDARD, and the illumination turned off.
*10 Measured value acquired by playing our specified music source with the volume level of the unit set to 21 and with the factory default settings (illumination: ON and sound mode: EXTRA BASS).
*11 Measured value acquired by playing our specified music source with the volume level of the unit set to maxim and with the factory default settings (illumination: ON and sound mode: EXTRA BASS).
If the built-in lithium-ion battery is running low, the maximum volume is reduced to about half to protect the circuit. This is a specification.
The usage life mentioned here also includes when playing back music at about half the volume.
*12 Actual performance time may vary from the listed time due to the volume, songs played, surrounding temperature, and usage conditions.

Caution on charging
When the USB plug is inserted in a wet condition, a short circuit occurs due to the liquid (tap water, salt water, refreshing drink etc.) attached to the main unit and charging cable or foreign matter, it may cause abnormal heat generation or malfunction.
Never insert USB plug when the main unit or charging cable is wet condition.
Do not install the appliance in a confined space, such as a bookcase or built-in cabinet.
Do not expose the batteries (battery pack or batteries installed) to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like for a long time.
Do not expose the batteries to extreme low temperature conditions that may result in overheating and thermal runaway. Do not dismantle, open or shred secondary cells or batteries. In the event of a cell leaking, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. If contact has been made, wash the affected area with copious amounts of water and seek medical advice. Secondary batteries need to be charged before use. Always refer to the equipment manual for proper charging instructions. After extended periods of storage, it may be necessary to charge and discharge the cells or batteries several times to obtain maximum performance. Dispose of properly.
