Important Safety Information

Listen Responsibly

To avoid hearing damage, make sure that the volume on your music player is
turned down before connecting your headphones. After placing headphones
in/on your ears, gradually turn up the volume until you reach a comfortable
listening level. Noise levels are measured in decibels (dB), exposure to any
noise at or above 85 dB can cause gradual hearing loss. Monitor your use;
hearing loss is a function of loudness versus time. The louder it is, the less time
you can be exposed to it. The softer it is, the more time you can listen to it.

“…. a typical person can safely listen to an iPod® for 4.6 hours per day at 70%
volume.”

“…. knowing the levels one is listening to music at, and for how long is extremely
important.”

From http://www.cbc.ca/health/story/2006/10/19/music-earphones.html

Get the most out of your equipment and enjoy great audio performance even
at safe levels. Our headphones will allow you to hear more details at lower
volume levels than ever before.

Use Responsibly

Do not use headphones when it’s unsafe to do so—while operating a vehicle,
crossing streets, or during any activity or in an environment where your full
attention to your surroundings is required.

It’s dangerous to drive while wearing headphones, and in many places, illegal
because it decreases your chances of hearing life-saving sounds outside of
your vehicle, such as another car’s horn and emergency vehicle sirens. Please
avoid wearing your headphones while driving. Use an FM transmitter to listen to
your mobile media devices instead.

Learn how to establish a safe listening level and review other important safety
guidelines from the Consumer Electronics Association at www.ce.org and the
Deafness Research Foundation at www.drf.org.
