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.
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
