Hearing Safety

Danger

• To avoid hearing damage, limit the time you use

headphones at high volume and set the volume to
a safe level. The louder the volume, the shorter the
safe listening time is.

Be sure to observe the following guidelines
when using your headset.

• Listen at reasonable volumes for
reasonable periods of time.

• Be careful not to adjust the volume
continuously upwards as your hearing
adapts.

• Do not turn up the volume so high that
you can’t hear what’s around you.

• You should use caution or temporarily
discontinue use in potentially
hazardous situations.

• Excessive sound pressure from
earphones and headphones can cause
hearing loss.

• Using headphones with both
ears covered while driving is not
recommended and may be illegal in
some areas while driving.

• For your safety, avoid distractions
from music or phone calls while in
trac or other potentially dangerous
environments.
