Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when you use earphones.
•Set the volume to the lowest set- ting before you begin listening. After you begin listening, adjust the volume to a comfortable level.
•Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended high- volume listening can lead to per- manent hearing loss.
•Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over time, your ears adapt to the volume level, so a volume level that does not cause discomfort might still damage your hearing.
Traffic Safety
Do not wear earphones while operat- ing a motor vehicle or riding a bicycle. This can create a traffic hazard and can be illegal in some areas.
Even though some earphones let you hear some outside sounds when lis- tening at normal volume levels, they still can present a traffic hazard.
