Important Safety Information
Avoid Hearing Loss
WARNING: Permanent hearing loss may occur if headphones are used at high volume. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound, which may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. Set the volume to a safe level before that happens. If you experience ringing in your ears or speech sounds muffled, reduce the volume or discontinue use of your headphones and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect your hearing:
ÂÂ Limit the amount of time you use headphones at high volume. ÂÂ Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
ÂÂ Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you.
Keep Out of Reach of Children

Do Not Use While Driving
Important: Use of headphones while operating a vehicle is not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Check and obey the applicable laws and regulations on the use of headphones while operating a vehicle. Be careful and attentive while driving. Stop listening to your audio device if you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle or performing another activity that requires your full attention.
Do Not Use When You Need to Hear External Sounds
WARNING: Apple
In Case of Skin Irritation
Headphones can lead to ear infections if not properly cleaned. Clean your eartips frequently with an antiseptic, such as isopropyl alcohol. Some individuals may also be sensitive to silicone elastomers. If rash or other skin problems develop, discontinue use. If the problem persists, consult a physician.
Avoid Electrostatic Shock
When using headphones in areas where the air is very dry, it is easy to build up static electricity and possible for your ear to receive a small electrostatic discharge from the headphones. To minimize the risks of electrostatic discharge from the headphones, avoid using the headphones in extremely dry environments or touch a grounded unpainted metal object before inserting the headphones.
