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 trafc or

other potentially dangerous environments.

To avoid damage or malfunction:

Caution

• Do not expose headphones to excessive heat.

• Do not drop your headphones.

• Headphones shall not be exposed to dripping or

splashing.

• Do not allow your headphones to be submerged in

water.

• Do not use any cleaning agents containing alcohol,

ammonia, benzene, or abrasives.

• If cleaning is required use a soft cloth, if necessary

dampened with a minimum amount of water or diluted
mild soap, to clean the product.

• The integrated battery shall not be exposed to

excessive heat such as sunshine, re or the like.

• Use only the Philips airline adapter to connect the

headphones to airplane seat jacks. Do not use other
airline adapters as they might not result in correct
response or even result in personal injury such as burns
or property damage due to overheating. Remove the
adapter and disconnect immediately if you experience
warming or loss of audio.

• Do not insert any plug into the power jack of the

airplane seat because it may damage the headphones
and result in personal injury.

• Never use your headphones when you are operating

a motor vehicle, riding a bicycle, running or walking in

trafc areas. It is dangerous and illegal in many places.

About operating and storage temperatures
and humidity

• Operate or store in a place where
temperature is between -15ºC (5ºF) and
55ºC (131ºF) (up to 90% relative humidity.

• Battery life may be shorter in high or low
temperature conditions.
