Dear customer, this product includes a radio

transmitter.

According to UNECE Regulation no. 10, a

vehicle manufacturers may impose specific

Emergency calls

This BLUETOOTH car handsfree and the

electronic device connected to the

handsfree operate using radio signals,

cellular, and landline networks as well as

user-programmed function, which cannot

guarantee connection under all conditions.

Therefore do not rely solely upon any

electronic device for essential

communications (such as medical

emergencies).

On BLUETOOTH communication

 Microwaves emitting from a BLUETOOTH

device may affect the operation of

electronic medical devices. Turn off this

unit and other BLUETOOTH devices in the

following locations, as it may cause an

accident.

– where inflammable gas is present, in a

hospital, train, airplane, or petrol station

– near automatic doors or a fire alarm

 This unit supports security capabilities that

comply with the BLUETOOTH standard to

provide a secure connection when the

BLUETOOTH wireless technology is used,

but security may not be enough

depending on the setting. Be careful when

communicating using BLUETOOTH wireless

technology.

 We do not take any responsibility for the

leakage of information during BLUETOOTH

communication.

If you have any questions or problems

concerning your unit that are not covered in

this manual, consult your nearest Sony

dealer.

Warning if your car’s ignition has no

ACC position

Be sure to set the AUTO OFF function

(page 20). The unit will shut off

completely and automatically in the set

time after the unit is turned off and the

clock is displayed (i.e. press and hold OFF

for 1 second), which prevents battery

drain. If you do not set the AUTO OFF

function, press and hold OFF until the

display disappears each time you turn the

ignition off.

Preparing a BLUETOOTH

Device

You can enjoy music, or perform handsfree

calling depending on the BLUETOOTH

compatible device such as a smartphone,

cellular phone and audio device (hereafter

“BLUETOOTH device” if not otherwise

specified). For details on connecting, refer to

the operating instructions supplied with the

device.

Before connecting the device, turn down the

volume of this unit; otherwise, loud sound

may result.

By touching the control dial on the unit with

an NFC* compatible smartphone, the unit is

paired and connected with the smartphone

automatically.

* NFC (Near Field Communication) is a technology

enabling short-range wireless communication

between various devices, such as mobile phones

and IC tags. Thanks to the NFC function, data

communication can be achieved easily just by

touching the relevant symbol or designated

location on NFC compatible devices.

For a smartphone with Android OS 4.0 or

lower installed, downloading the app “NFC

Easy Connect” available on Google Play is

required. The app may not be downloadable

in some countries/regions.

1 Activate the NFC function on the

smartphone.

For details, refer to the operating

instructions supplied with the

smartphone.

smartphone carefully to prevent scratches.

• One-touch connection is not possible when the

unit is already connected to two NFC compatible

devices. In this case, disconnect either device, and

make connection with the smartphone again.

When connecting a BLUETOOTH device for

the first time, mutual registration (called

“pairing”) is required. Pairing enables this

unit and other devices to recognize each

other. This unit can connect two BLUETOOTH

devices (two cellular phones, or a cellular
