Description of safety
For your protection and comfort, GN Netcom, Inc. (“GN”) has implemented several
protective measures in the headset which are carefully designed to maintain safe
volume levels and ensure that the headset operates in compliance with government
safety standards. This headset is suitable for indoor use only.
!Warning!
PERMANENT HEARING LOSS MAY RESULT FROM LONGTERM EXPOSURE TO
SOUNDS AT HIGH VOLUM ES. USE AS LOW A VOLUM E AS POSSIBLE .
Headsets are capable of delivering sounds at loud volumes and high pitched tones.
Under certain circumstances, exposure to such sounds can result in permanent
hearing loss or damage. The volume level may vary based on conditions such as the
phone you are using, its reception and volume settings, and the environment. Avoid
prolonged use of the headset at excessive sound pressure levels. Please read the
Safety Guidelines below prior to using this headset.
You can reduce the risk of hearing damage by following
these Safety Guidelines:
1. Prior to using this headset follow these steps:
- Before putting on the headset, turn the volume control to its lowest level;
- Put the headset on; and then
- Slowly adjust the volume control to a comfortable level.
2. During the use of this headset:
- Keep the volume at the lowest level possible and avoid using the headset in noisy
environments where you may be inclined to turn up the volume;
- If increased volume is necessary, adjust the volume control slowly;
- Ringing in the ears may indicate that the sound levels are too high;
- If you experience discomfort or ringing in your ears, immediately discontinue using
the headset and consult a physician; and
- Stop using the headset if it causes great discomfort.
With continued use at a high volume, your ears may become accustomed to the sound
level, which may result in permanent damage to your hearing without any noticeable
discomfort. Use caution while using your headset when you are engaging in any activity that requires your full attention. While engaging in any such activity, removing the
headset from your ear or turning o your headset will keep you from being distracted,
so as to avoid accident or injury.
Safety Information
- Install in accordance with the instructions. Do not install near any heat sources
such as radiators, stoves, or other devices (including ampliers) that produce heat.
- Unplug the headset stand during lightning, storms, or when the headset is not
used for long periods of time.
- Use of a headset will impair your ability to hear other sounds. Use caution while using
your headset when you are engaging in any activity that requires your full attention.
- The headset, the headset stand and the power adapter (the “products”) are not
toys. Never allow children to play with the products and always store the products
out of reach from children.
- This package contains small parts that may be hazardous to children. The bags
themselves, or the many small parts they contain, may cause choking if ingested.
- Consult your physician before using the headset if you have a pacemaker or other
electrical medical devices.
- Never try to dismantle the products yourself, or push objects of any kind into the
products, as this may cause short circuits which could result in a re or electric shock.
- None of the components can be replaced or repaired by users. Only authorized
dealers or service centers may open the products. If any parts of the products
require replacement for any reason, including normal wear and tear or breakage,
contact your local dealer.
- Avoid exposing the products to moisture, rain, or other liquids to protect against
damage of the products or injury to you.

products have a damaged cord or plug, or if the products have been dropped in a
liquid, immediately discontinue use and contact GN.

- Dispose of the products according to local standards and regulations.
Built-in battery care
- The products are powered by a rechargeable battery. The full performance of a
new battery is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge
cycles. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but will
eventually wear out.
- Recharge your battery only with the provided approved charger designated for the
products.
- If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over time.
- Leaving the products in hot or cold places will reduce the capacity and lifetime of
the battery.
- Batteries may explode if damaged.
Battery warning!
- ”Caution” – The battery used in the products may present a risk of re or chemical
burn if mistreated.
- Do not attempt to open the products or replace the battery, unless otherwise
stated in the manual. Most batteries are built-in and not changeable.
- Use of other batteries may present a risk of re or explosion and the warranty will
be terminated.

Cautionary Notes to Computer Users:
When using any product with a computer, care should be taken in dry or low humidity
environments to protect the user from electrostatic discharge from the monitor (CRT).
Computer monitors can induce a substantial electrostatic charge when turned on or
o, or when there is a power failure, and the resulting electrostatic discharge can be
passed through the product to ground. A user in close proximity to or touching the
computer may feel a common “shock” sensation, similar to touching a door knob after
walking across a carpet, causing no harm to the user. This discharge is entirely due to
the computer monitor, the product is merely the shortest path to ground. To minimize
the possibility of electrostatic discharge through the product, you can:
- Use a grounded screen in front of the monitor.
- Use static dissipative wrist straps.
- Increase the relative humidity in the room to 60% or more.
- Install static dissipative carpets or oor covering.
- Remove the product before turning the computer on or o.
GN Netcom, Inc. products meet OSHA, FCC and CSA standards.
