Basics
Charging the battery
Before using the Mono Bluetooth™ Headset MBH10 for the first time, you need to
charge the headset for approximately 2.5 hours. Sony chargers are recommended.
To charge the battery
1Plug one end of the USB cable into the charger (or into the USB port of a
computer).
2Plug the other end of the cable into the Micro USB port on your Mono
Bluetooth™ Headset MBH10.
Turning the headset on and off
To turn on the headset
•Press and hold down the Power key until the notification light turns green.
To turn off the headset
•Press and hold down the Power key until the red notification light flashes once.
Pairing the headset with compatible devices
Before you can use the headset, you need to pair it with a Bluetooth™ compatible
device, for example, a phone. There are two ways to pair the headset: manually, and
automatically using NFC. After successful pairing, the headset connects to the
Bluetooth™ compatible device as soon as the headset is turned on and within range.
After that, you can also pair the headset with a second Bluetooth™ compatible
device in the same way.
To manually pair the headset with a Bluetooth™ device
1Make sure the Bluetooth™ device has the Bluetooth™ function turned on.
2Turn off the headset.
3Headset: Press and hold down the Power key until a green notification light
starts flashing rapidly.
4Bluetooth™ device: Scan for Bluetooth™ devices, then select MBH10 in the
list of available devices.
5Bluetooth™ device: Follow the pairing instructions that appear. If a passcode
is required, enter "0000".

of each device touches the other.
3Follow the pairing instructions that appear on the Bluetooth™ device. If a
passcode is required, enter "0000".
The device used in this illustration is for illustration purposes only and may not accurately

Multipoint technology
Use Multipoint technology to connect your headset to two Bluetooth™ devices at the
same time. For example, if you connect your headset with two phones, you can
receive calls from both phones without having to disconnect and reconnect.
If you prefer that your headset connects to just one Bluetooth™ device at any given
time, you can use Singlepoint mode instead. Singlepoint mode is enabled by default.
Before pairing your headset with a new device in Singlepoint mode, make sure that
you disconnect it from other devices.
Multipoint mode consumes more battery power than Singlepoint mode.
To connect your headset to two devices at the same time
1Make sure that the headset is turned off and that the two Bluetooth devices
have the Bluetooth™ function turned on.
2Press and hold down the Volume key while turning on the headset. After
Multipoint mode is activated, a yellow notification light will flash twice.
3Pair and connect your headset to the two Bluetooth™ devices, one after the
other.
4To deactivate Multipoint mode, press and hold down the Volume key again
while turning on the headset. After Multipoint mode is deactivated, a yellow
notification light will flash once.
In Multipoint mode, if the connection to the first Bluetooth™ device is lost when you connect
to a second device, restart your headset.

Troubleshooting
I cannot answer a second call
•Make sure that your calling device supports the Bluetooth™ headset profile.
•Make sure that the correct calling device is selected.
The headset turns off automatically
•If the headset beeps several times shortly before turning off, the battery level is low.
Charge the battery.
Unexpected behaviour
•Restart the headset.
No connection between headset and other device
•Make sure that the headset is charged and within range of the device that you want
to connect to. A maximum distance of 10 metres (33 feet), with no solid objects in
between, is recommended.
•Disable the Bluetooth™ function in the other device so that all connections are
closed, then re-enable the Bluetooth™ function and pair the headset with the device
again.
