Road safety
Do not use headphones/earphones while
driving, cycling, or operating any motorized
vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is
illegal in some area. It can also be potentially
dangerous to play your headsets at high
volume while walking, especially at pedestrian
crossings. You should exercise extreme
caution or discontinue use in potentially
hazardous situations.
Preventing hearing damage
Avoid using headphones/earphones at high
volume. Hearing experts advise against
continuous, loud and extended play. If you
experience a ringing in your ears, reduce
volume or discontinue use.
Consideration for others
Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will
allow you to hear outside sounds and to be
considerate to the people around you.
