Prevention of hearing loss
Caution: Permanent hearing loss may occur if earphones are
used at high volumes for prolonged periods of time.
Note: For France, these earphones have been tested to comply
with the Sound Pressure Level requirement stipulated in French

Always listen to the lowest possible volume for limited periods
of time.
Ideally, do not exceed 50% of the maximum volume of an
MP3 player, iPod or other device and do not listen for more
than 1 hour a day.
You should immediately stop listening if you experience
ringing in your ears or other pain or discomfort.
If the earphones cause discomfort or irritation, stop using
them. Consult a physician if needed.

volume of the sound source down before connecting our
