 Additional information

Precautions

• The driver must not use the headphones. 

It may lead to distraction and cause an 
accident. 

• If the headphones are used while 

exposed to direct sunlight, sensitivity of 
the infrared sensors may deteriorate, and 
inferior quality sound may result.

• When the headphones are not to be 

used for a long period of time, remove 
the batteries to avoid damage caused 
by battery leakage and subsequent 
corrosion.

• Do not leave the headphones in a 

location subject to direct sunlight, heat 
or moisture (It is recommended to use 
the headphones at a of temperature of 
between 5 °C and 35 °C).

• Do not drop, hit or otherwise subject the 

headphones to excessive shock of any 
kind, as this could damage the product.

Notes on headphones 

preventing hearing damage

Avoid using headphones at high volume. 
Hearing experts advise against continuous, 
loud and extended play. If you experience 
a ringing in your ears, lower the volume or 
discontinue use.

Caring for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This 
will allow you to hear outside sounds and 
to be considerate to the people around you. 

If you have any questions or problems 
concerning the headphones that are not 
covered in this manual, please consult your 
nearest Sony dealer.

transmitter and the headphones.

,

  Check that the infrared sensors are not 

obstructed by your hands or hair.

 Operating the system

Listening to a 

program

Before listening 

• The transmitter for the headphones is on 

the display monitor.

• To prevent your ears from being 

damaged, first lower the volume.

1

  Turn on the display monitor.

2

  Set the power switch to ON on the 

left housing of the headphones.

The headphones turn on and the 
POWER indicator glows red. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

3

  Put on the headphones.

Be sure to put the right housing (R) on 
your right ear and the left housing (L) 
on your left ear. 

4

  Start playback.

5

  Turn the VOL control dial to adjust 

the volume.

If the infrared sensors of the headphones 
are covered by your hands when 
adjusting the volume, the attenuate 
function will be activated and volume 
cannot be adjusted.  To adjust the 
volume, move closer to the transmitter 
of the monitor, or orient the infrared 
emitters towards the transmitter of the 
monitor.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Sound is automatically attenuated if 

noise increases
— Attenuate function

If the infrared rays are obstructed, or 
the headphones are used outside their 
effective range, noise will increase and 
sound will diminish. To avoid potential 
ear damage as a result of noise, this 
function attenuates any sound in the 
headphones. Sound is auto-matically 
restored when you move nearer to the 
transmitter or remove the obstruction.

Selecting the audio channel

You can select the audio channel with the 
CH1/CH2 switch to avoid interference 
when using the cordless headphones with 
other AV equipment. Select the audio 
channel according to the Mobile Monitor 
XVM-F65 setting of “WireLess Headphone.”

After listening to the programmes

Take off the headphones, and then turn 
off the power (Noise may occur if you 
turn off the monitor before taking off the 
headphones). 

Replacing the ear 

pads

The ear pads are replaceable. If the ear 
pads become dirty or worn out, replace 
them as illustrated below. 
The ear pad is not commercially available. 
You can order replacements at your 
nearest Sony dealer.

 

1

  Remove the old ear pad by pulling 

it off.
