Noise-cancelling
The built-in microphones pick up the noise around you, allowing the product to produce a sound-cancelling signal to
effectively reduce the noise. The noise-cancelling function turns on automatically when you turn on the power to the
product for the first time.
• There is a difference in volume depending on whether the noise-cancelling function is on or off.
Hear-through
In the hear-through mode of the product, the ambient sound is audible through the built-in microphone even with the
headphones on.
• The ambient sound may at times be hard to discern depending on the volume of the music you are playing. In that
case, turn down the volume of the music.
• Even in the hear-through mode of the product, the ambient sound may be less audible due to the ambient
environment. Do not use the product in an area where it might be dangerous if the ambient sound is hard to discern,
such as places with a lot of traffic.
• With the hear-through mode on, the volume of music automatically turns down to capture the ambient sound.
