Sony MDR-AS400EX F.A.Q.

How do I properly clean and maintain my Sony MDR-AS400EX earbuds?

To clean your Sony MDR-AS400EX earbuds, gently wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using alcohol or cleaning solvents. For the earbud tips, remove them and wash with mild soap and water, then let them dry completely before reattaching. Ensure the mesh is free of debris by lightly brushing it with a soft toothbrush.

What should I do if the sound is only coming from one earbud?

First, check the connection to your device to ensure it is secure. If the problem persists, try the earbuds with another device. Inspect the cable for any damage and ensure the earbud tip is clear of debris. If the issue remains, consider contacting Sony support for further assistance.

How can I ensure a comfortable fit with the Sony MDR-AS400EX?

The Sony MDR-AS400EX comes with multiple sizes of earbud tips. Try different sizes to find the most comfortable fit for your ears. Additionally, the adjustable ear loops can be customized to fit snugly around your ears to prevent slippage during use.

Can I use the Sony MDR-AS400EX for workouts and running?

Yes, the Sony MDR-AS400EX is designed for active use. The secure-fitting ear loops help keep the earbuds in place during physical activities, making them suitable for workouts and running.

What should I do if my earbuds are not producing any sound?

Ensure that the earbuds are properly connected to your audio device and that the device is not on mute. Check the volume settings on both the earbuds and the device. If using a smartphone, try restarting it. If the problem persists, try using the earbuds with another device to isolate the issue.

How do I replace the earbud tips on the Sony MDR-AS400EX?

To replace the earbud tips, gently pull the existing tip off the earbud. Align a new tip with the earbud nozzle and push it on until it fits snugly. Ensure the replacement tips are the correct size for a comfortable and secure fit.

What is the best way to store the Sony MDR-AS400EX when not in use?

Store the earbuds in a clean, dry place. Use the carry pouch provided with your earbuds to protect them from dust and potential damage. Avoid wrapping the cable tightly to prevent strain and tangling.

How do I resolve issues with tangled cables?

To prevent tangling, loosely coil the cable and secure it with a twist tie or cable organizer. When untangling, gently work through knots by loosening them with your fingers instead of pulling on the cable.

Are the Sony MDR-AS400EX compatible with all devices?

The Sony MDR-AS400EX earbuds are compatible with any device that has a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. For devices without a headphone jack, a compatible adapter will be required.
