Hearing Safety

Danger

• To avoid hearing damage, limit the time you use the

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

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

• 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 this headset 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.
