Environmental information
All unnecessary packaging has been omitted.
We have tried to make the packaging easy to
separate into three materials: cardboard (box),
polystyrene foam (buffer) and polyethylene
(bags, protective foam sheet.)
Your system consists of materials which can
be recycled and reused if disassembled by
a specialized company. Please observe the
local regulations regarding the disposal of
packaging materials, exhausted batteries and
old equipment.
Disposal of your old product and
batteries
Your product is designed and manufactured
with high quality materials and components,
which can be recycled and reused.
Never dispose of your product with other
household waste. Please inform yourself about
the local rules on the separate collection
of electrical and electronic products and
batteries. The correct disposal of these
products helps prevent potentially negative
consequences on the environment and human
health.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your •
hearing ‘comfort level’ adapts to higher
volumes of sound. So after prolonged
listening, what sounds ‘normal’ can
actually be loud and harmful to your
hearing. To guard against this, set your
volume to a safe level before your hearing
adapts and leave it there.
Set your volume control at a low setting. •
Slowly increase the sound until you can •
hear it comfortably and clearly, without
distortion.
Prolonged exposure to sound, even •
at normally ‘safe’ levels, can also cause
hearing loss.
Be sure to use your equipment •
reasonably and take appropriate breaks.
Listen at reasonable volumes for •
reasonable periods of time.
Be careful not to adjust the volume 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. Do not use headphones while
operating a motorized vehicle, cycling,
skateboarding, etc.; it may create a traffic
hazard and is illegal in many areas.
Notice
Notice of compliance
The set complies with the FCC-Rules, Part
15 and with 21 CFR 1040.10. Operation is
