Exposure to high volume sound levels
may damage your hearing. Although
there is no single volume setting that
is appropriate for everyone, you should
always use the handset with the volume
set at moderate levels and avoid prolonged exposure to high volume sound
levels. The louder the volume, the less
time is required before your hearing
could be affected. If you experience
hearing discomfort, you should stop
using the handset. To protect your
hearing, some hearing experts suggest
that you:
1. Set the volume control in a low
position and then adjust the volume to a comfortable level.
2. Limit the amount of time you use
the handset at high volume.
3. Avoid turning up the volume to
block out noisy surroundings.
CHILDREN: Never allow children to
play with the product – small parts may
be a choking hazard and the amplified
volume may cause hearing damage.
