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 shorter 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 traffic or other potentially dangerous environments.
