multi index(time series) slicing error in pandas

i have below dataframe. date/time is multi-indexed indexes. when i doing this code,

<code>
idx = pd.IndexSlice 
print(df_per_wday_temp.loc[idx[:,datetime.time(4, 0, 0): datetime.time(7, 0, 0)]])"

but i got error 'MultiIndex Slicing requires the index to be fully lexsorted tuple len (2), lexsort depth (1)'. this may be error in index slicing but i don't know why this happened. anybody can solve it ?

If is not possible sorting index, is necessary create boolean mask and filter by boolean indexing:

from datetime import time
mask = df1.index.get_level_values(1).to_series().between(time(4, 0, 0), time(7, 0, 0)).values
df = df1[mask]
print (df)
                      a      b
date       time               
2018-01-26 04:00:00 NaN  -9.96
           04:15:00 NaN -10.19
           04:30:00 NaN -10.20
           04:45:00 NaN  -9.85
           05:00:00 NaN -10.33
           05:15:00 NaN -10.18
           05:30:00 NaN -10.81
