WARninGS
Exposure to high volume sound levels or excessive sound pressure may damage your
hearing. Although there is no single volume setting that is appropriate for everyone,
you should always use your earpiece with the volume set at moderate levels and avoid
prolonged exposure to high volume sound levels. The louder the volume, the less time
is required before your hearing could be affected. You may experience different sound
levels when using your earpiece with different devices. The device you use and its
settings affect the level of sound you hear. If you experience hearing discomfort, you
should stop listening to the device through your earpiece. To protect your hearing, some
hearing experts suggest that you:
1. Set the volume control in a low position before putting the earpiece on your ears.
2. Limit the amount of time you use earpiece at high volume.
3. Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
4. Turn the volume down if the sound from the earpiece prevents you from hearing
people speaking near you.
