IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS !
We recommend thoroughly reading all the instructions in this manual, and
that you keep it somewhere safe for future reference.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1) READ these instructions.
2) KEEP these instructions.
3) RESPECT all the warnings.
4) FOLLOW all the instructions.
5) In order to avoid damaging your hearing, do not listen to headphones at
high volumes for extended periods of time.
Listening to a portable stereo at high volumes can cause damage to the user’s
ears and may lead to hearing problems (temporary or permanent deafness,
buzzing in the ears, tinnitus, hyperacusis).
It is strongly advised not to listen to a portable stereo at full volume or for
more than one hour per day at an average volume.
Don’t use the headphones continuously, take frequent breaks. Pay particular
attention to children and teenagers who use these devices at a younger age
and often at excessive volume.
6) If you begin to hear buzzing or ringing in the ears (tinnitus), experience a
loss of hearing or ‘muffled’ hearing, stop using the headphones immediately. If
the symptoms continue after a few hours, consult an ENT doctor immediately.
In some cases, immediate treatment may avoid permanent hearing problems.
Exposure to excessive volumes (over 85dB) for more than one hour can cause
irreparable damage to your hearing.
7) Set the volume to minimum before connecting your Focal
headphones, then turn up the volume. Once the headphones
are in place, gradually increase the volume to a comfortable and
reasonable level. Always use the headphones with the protective
ear cushions or tips.
8) NEVER drive a vehicle (car, motorbike, boat...) or ride a bike while wearing
the headphones. Not only is this behaviour dangerous, it is also illegal. In
some countries, a breach of the highway code for driving without due care
and attention (if the driver’s concentration is reduced in any way) may result
in a penalty.
We advise against wearing the headphones while riding a bike, running,
walking or carrying out any other activities in busy places. If you do wear the
headphones in such places,set to a low volume so you can hear surrounding
noises, including horns, alarms and warning signals.
Generally speaking, reducing your chances of hearing surrounding noises
poses a threat to yourself and to others.
9) NEVER use the headphones as ear defenders.
10) If you feel the headphones heat up or if there is a loss of the audio signal,
remove the headphones and disconnect immediately.
11) Do not install the device close to a heat source such as a radiator, cooker,
heat vent or any other appliance (including amplifiers) that gives out heat.
12) Never leave your headphones exposed to humidity and never submerge
them in water.
13) The headphones do not require any particular cleaning. If necessary, clean
with a dry, soft duster. Do not use cleaning products containing solvents.
14) Entrust any repairs or maintenance to a qualified professional. Repair
or maintenance may be required in case of any kind of damage (spillages,
damaged cable, exposure to rain, if the device is dropped etc.).
15) Only connect this product to devices with a headphone output. If you are
not sure about the type of device, ask your retailer.
16) Only use accessories recommended by the manufacturer.
17) Do not obstruct any openings. Never insert any objects into the openings.
18) Do not attempt to repair this device yourself. Contact a qualified
professional for all maintenance work.
19) Do not use this device in tropical climates.
20) If the device has been transported from a cold environment to a warm

the cable.

unauthorised modifications may put you in danger, be illegal or reduce the
performance of the device.
