2. Important Warnings and Safety Information
2.1Read the Safety Guide
WARNING!: Your headset includes a Warning & Declaration guide. Do not attempt to assemble or use your headset before you have thoroughly read and understood the safety guide. If you did not receive the booklet, please contact your Jabra representative before continuing.
2.2Protecting your Hearing with SafeTone™
WARNING!: Because a headset is held firmly against your ear, sudden, loud sounds pose a potential hearing risk. Furthermore, the more you use your headset each day, the lower the maximum volume must be to protect against eventual hearing loss. Jabra GO headsets provide effective measures that protect you against both of these types of dangers (see below).
SafeTone™ consists of two components — PeakStop™ and Intellitone™:
-PeakStop™
Your Jabra GO headset automatically suppresses sudden loud sounds, thereby protecting your ears from acoustic shock. This system is called PeakStop™, which is only available from Jabra.
-Intellitone™ Noise-Exposure Protection
Jabra GO headsets offer a choice of four protection levels (all of which also include the standard PeakStop™ protection described above). These features protect your hearing by preventing acoustic shocks and limiting the maximum noise exposure from the headset during your workday. This system is called IntelliTone™, which is only available from Jabra.
The table below summarizes the protection levels available.
Protection level | Criteria for selecting |

Level 0 | Basic protection against sound spikes [118 dB(A)]; auto volume disabled |

Important: Check your local laws or regulations to find out whether a specific protection level is mandated in your area.
