This How.com.vn will teach you how to turn on and pair your Sony headphones with Bluetooth. Connecting via Bluetooth does not require any cables or wires and you can see if your headphones are Bluetooth compatible if you see the Bluetooth symbol on the headphone's packaging.
Steps
Make sure the power to your headphones is off. If they turn on when connected to a power source, press and hold the power button until they turn off.
Make sure the connecting device (laptop, computer, speaker) is powered on and within 3 feet of your headphones. If the connecting device is far away, you most likely will not be able to pair your headphones.
Press and hold the POWER button for 7 seconds. Depending on the model of your headphones, the power button could be located over the left or right ear. While the headphones are powered off, this will prompt them to turn on pairing mode using Bluetooth.[1]- Release the POWER button when the indicator light begins to blink rapidly. Your headphones will automatically cancel pairing mode after about 5 minutes of inactivity.
- Your headphones can only be connected to one device at a time, so if you're having trouble connecting to a new device, make sure your headphones aren't currently connected to something else.[2] For instance, if your headphones are connected to your laptop and your laptop is powered on and connected to your headphones, you won't be able to connect your headphones to your TV.
