Hearing safety

Observe the following guidelines when using your
headphones:

• Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.

• Be careful not to adjust the volume higher 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,
or skateboarding, etc. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
many areas.

Important (for models supplied with headphones):

Philips guarantees compliance with the maximum sound power of its
audio players as determined by relevant regulatory bodies, but only
with the original model of provided headphones. If these headphones
need replacement, we recommend that you contact your retailer to
order a Philips model identical to that of the original.
