Battery level indicator

Press and hold the POWER button for 1 second or longer 
to display the battery level on the display. 
Immediately replace both batteries with new batteries if 
the indicator starts flashing (indication 5 below). If using 
new alkaline batteries, use after checking the 
recommended time limits.

• When BATTERY is set to TYPE1, the battery level is 

indicated based on the use of new LR6 (size AA) Sony 
alkaline batteries. The battery level may not be 
displayed correctly when different kinds of batteries, 
different brand of batteries, or old batteries are used. If 
using batteries other than size AA alkaline batteries, 
select the battery type using the BATTERY function.

• If you plan to use the transmitter continuously for a long 

period of time, it is recommended that you replace the 
batteries with brand new ones.

For details on the BATTERY function setting, see “Setting 
the battery type (BATTERY)” (page 12)
.

Battery precautions

Batteries may leak or explode if mistreated. Be sure to 
follow these instructions.
• Insert batteries in the correct 

3

 and 

#

 polarity 

orientation.

• Always replace the two batteries together with new 

ones.

• Do not use different types of batteries or old and new 

ones together.

• Dry cells are not rechargeable.
• When not using the device for a long period of time,

contact your Sony service representative.

Supplying Power from a USB 
Connector

The unit can operate from a commercially available USB-
output type AC adapter or portable power supply 
connected to the USB connector.
When supplying power using a USB-output type AC 
adapter or portable power supply, use a unit that satisfies 
the following conditions.
• Output connector: USB micro B type
• Rated voltage: 5 V
• Output current: 200 mA or higher

Displays “EXT” when power is supplied from the USB 
connector. 

Noise may occur in the audio depending on the AC 
adapter or portable power supply that is connected. In 
such cases, you can reduce the noise by distancing the 
unit or lavalier microphone from the AC adapter or 
portable power supply or otherwise altering their 
positions.

Charging Nickel Metal Hydride 
Batteries

You can charge nickel metal hydride batteries inserted in 
the unit.
When charging nickel metal hydride batteries, turn the 
power off and connect a commercially available USB-
output type AC adapter or portable power supply to the 
USB connector. 
The POWER indicator is lit orange while charging 
batteries. When charging is finished, the POWER 
indicator goes off.
When charging batteries using a USB-output type AC 
adapter or portable power supply, use a unit that satisfies 
the following conditions.
• Output connector: USB micro B type
• Rated voltage: 5 V
