Cautions

• Leave some slack in the cord of the headphones if you wind them around the unit.

Do not;

• disassemble, remodel, drop, or allow the unit to get wet.

• use or store in locations directly exposed to sunlight, corrosive gases, a heat vent, or a heating appliance.

• use or store in humid or dusty locations.

• use force to open the battery lid.

Batteries

• Do not peel off the covering on batteries and do not use if the covering has been peeled off.

• Align the poles + and - correctly when inserting batteries.

• Remove batteries if you do not intend to use the unit for a long time.

• Do not throw into fire, short-circuit, disassemble, or subject to excessive heat.

• Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries.

Allergies

Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with the headphones or any other parts that directly contact your skin. Continued use may cause rashes or other allergic reactions.

Listening caution

Do not play your headphones at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous

EST. 1924extended 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 discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

Even if your headphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear outside sounds, don’t turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort 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 comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level:

• Leave it there.
