Precautions
On power
DC 3.7V : the built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery
DC 5.0V : when charged using USB
Rated current consumption : 500mA
On safety
Do not operate the unit while driving, cycling or operating any motorized
vehicle.
On handling
Do not leave the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject
to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical shock.
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, remove the battery
and have the unit checked by qualified personnel before operating it any
further.
When using your linear PCM recorder, remember to follow the
precautions below in order to avoid warping the cabinet or causing the
linear PCM recorder to malfunction.
Do not sit down with the linear PCM recorder in your back pocket.
Do not put your linear PCM recorder into a bag with the headphones/

Be careful not to allow water to splash on the unit. The unit is not
waterproof. In particular, be careful in the following situations.
When you have the unit in your pocket and go to the bathroom, etc.
When you bend down, the unit may drop into the water and may get
wet.
When you use the unit in an environment where the unit is exposed to
rain, snow, or humidity.
In circumstances where you get sweaty. If you touch the unit with wet
hands or if you put the unit in the pocket of sweaty clothes, the unit may
get wet.
Listening with this unit at high volume may affect your hearing.
For traffic safety, do not use this unit while driving or cycling.
Do not use this unit at a place where the inability to hear surrounding
sounds may present a danger.
You may feel pain in your ears if you use the headphones when the
ambient air is very dry.

soft dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your unit, please consult
your nearest Sony dealer.
Notes on the Bluetooth function
Bluetooth wireless technology allows connection at a distance of up
to about 10 m. However, the effective range may vary depending on
obstructions (people, metals, walls, etc.) or signal status.
Because Bluetooth and wireless LAN (IEEE802.11b/g) devices use the
same frequency (2.4 GHz), signal interference may occur, resulting in
communication speed decrease, noise, or inability to connect, if Bluetooth
communications are used near a wireless LAN device. In such cases, take
the following measures.
Perform Bluetooth communications at least 10 m away from the wireless
LAN device when connecting your linear PCM recorder and a Bluetooth
device.
Place your linear PCM recorder and the Bluetooth device as close
together as possible.
Turn off the wireless LAN device when performing Bluetooth
communications within about 10 m of a wireless LAN device.
Radio waves emitted from a Bluetooth device may affect the operation of
equipment such as electronic medical devices. Turn off your linear PCM
recorder and other Bluetooth devices in the following locations as failure
to do so may cause an accident.
In hospitals, near priority seats on trains, in airplanes, in places such as
gasoline stations where flammable gases are present, near automatic
doors or fire alarms.
Press or to select the optimum recording volume level for
the sound source.
You can check the current recording volume level on the peak level
meters. Adjust the recording volume so that the recording volume
level stays around -12 dB (), which fits within the optimum range.
If too loud sounds are detected during recording, “OVER” ()
appears on the display window and the peak indicator lights. In such
a case, turn down the recording volume by pressing until “OVER”
disappears and the peak indicator goes out to avoid sound distortion.
You can press and hold or to keep turning up or down the
