Help Guide Wireless Speaker SRS-XB10 What you can do with the speaker One- touch connection (NFC) BLUETOOTH ® Ver. 4.2 Compatible BLUETOOTH profiles *1: A2DP , AVRCP , HFP, HSP By connecting the speaker with a smartphone via BLUETOOTH , you can talk hands- free using the built- in microphone and speaker. “Noise suppression” and “Echo cancellation” enable phone calls with high- quality sound. Noise suppression: Noise picked up by the speaker is suppressed, so the caller will hear your voice with less noise. Echo cancellation: By reducing sound from the speaker picked up by the speaker microphone, echoes generated by the caller’s phone will be suppressed. You can enjoy up to about 16 hours *2*3 of continuous wireless music playback with the built- in lithium ion rechargeable battery. By using the AUDIO IN jack (external input jack), you can enjoy music of portable audio devices, etc. By connecting two SRS- XB10 speakers via BLUETOOTH , you can play audio in either stereo mode (stereo sound) or double mode. The speaker has a water resistant specification *4*5 of IPX5*6 as specified in “Degrees of protection against ingress of water” of the IEC60529 “Ingress Protection Rating (IP Code).” 4- 694- 214- 11(2) Copyright 2017 Sony Corporation BLUETOOTH standard profiles indicate the purpose of BLUETOOTH communication between devices.*1 The battery life may vary depending on the ambient temperature or conditions of use. The method of estimating the battery life has been changed since 2015.*2 When using a specified music source, sending music at the maximum volume level from a BLUETOOTH device, and setting the volume level of the speaker to 10. If the volume level of the speaker is set to maximum, the usage life will be approx. 5 hours.*3 Requires that the cap is fastened securely.*4 The supplied accessories are not water resistant.*5 IPX5 (Degree of protection against jets of water): The system has been tested and found to remain functional after exposure to direct jet streams of water using a nozzle of 6.3 mm (about 1/4 in) internal diameter from any direction where approximately 12.5 L/ min of water is applied for a period of more than 3 minutes from a distance of about 3 meters (about 10 ft).*6 1

Help Guide Wireless Speaker SRS-XB10 Charging the speaker The speaker contains a rechargeable lithium ion battery which should be charged more than 1 hour before using the speaker for the first time. Make sure that the speaker is turned off.1 Connect the speaker to a booted computer or AC outlet to charge.When charging from a booted computer Connect the micro- USB cable (supplied) to the speaker, then connect the other end to a booted computer. When charging from an AC outlet Connect the micro- USB cable (supplied) to the speaker, connect the other end to a USB AC adaptor (not supplied), then plug the USB AC adaptor to an AC outlet. The CHG (charge) indicator lights up in orange while charging. It would take about 4 hours and 30 minutes*1. The time may vary depending on the ambient temperature or conditions of use. The CHG (charge) indicator will turn off when charging has ended. If the CHG (charge) indicator stays turned off when the speaker power is off and connected to a USB device, the built- in 2 4

Battery life (when using the BLUETOOTH connection) About 16 hours*2. The time stated above may vary depending on the ambient temperature or conditions of use. When the battery is running low When the CHG (charge) indicator flashes slowly in orange, the battery is running low and needs to be charged. Recommended system environment of computer for USB charging Windows® 10, Windows® 8.1 , Windows® 8 , Windows® 7 SP1 , Mac OS X (version 10.6 - 10.12) Operation in all computers with the above environment is not guaranteed. Operation in a home- built computer is not covered by the warranty. Hint A speaker that is in use can be charged if it is connected to a booted computer or AC outlet via a USB AC adaptor (not supplied). In this case, it may take longer to charge the battery than compared to the speaker is turned off depending on the conditions of use. Therefore, it is recommended to turn off the speaker when charging. Note When you use the speaker at a loud volume, the battery may run low even if the speaker is connected to a booted computer. If you want to use the speaker while charging, lower the volume of the speaker. Otherwise, turn off the speaker and charge the battery sufficiently. When you use the speaker at a loud volume for a long time, the battery may run low even if the speaker is connected to a booted computer. As a result, sound becomes low. This is not a malfunction. Turn off the speaker and charge the battery sufficiently. When you switch the power source between a booted computer/AC outlet and battery by connecting/disconnecting the USB cable, the speaker may stop sound output for a short while. This is not a malfunction. When using the speaker for the first time, be sure to charge the battery for more than 1 hour before turning on the power. In an extremely cold or hot environment, charging stops for safety. If charging takes a long time, it also makes charging of the speaker stop. In these conditions, the CHG (charge) indicator keeps flashing in orange quickly, but this is not a malfunction. To resolve these issues, disconnect the micro-USB cable and connect it again within the operating temperature between 5 °C and 35 °C (41 °F and 95 °F). Do not charge in places where water may splash. Even if you do not intend to use the speaker for a long time, charge the battery sufficiently once every 6 months to maintain its performance. Related Topic Turning the power on lithium ion battery is fully charged. Once the battery is fully charged, it will not be charged further even if the speaker is kept connected to a USB device. Time that is required to charge the empty battery to its full capacity when the speaker turns off.*1 When the specified music source is used, the BLUETOOTH device is set to the maximum volume, and the volume level of the speaker is set to 10. The battery life when the volume level of the speaker is set to maximum will be 5 hours.*2 5
