Cautions
Listening caution
Selection and care of rechargeable/dry cell batteries
EST. 1924
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous ex- tended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discon- tinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “com- fort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
≥Start your volume control at a low setting.
≥Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it com- fortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level: ≥Leave it there.
Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with the headphones, earphones or any other parts that directly contact your skin. Continued use may cause rashes or other allergic reactions.
∫Selection
