Listening Cautions
This product respects the current regulations for limiting the output volume of consumer
audio devices to a safe level. By listening to your device with headphones or earbuds at
high volumes, you run the risk of permanent damage to your ears. Even if you get used
to listening at high volumes and it seems normal to you, you still risk the possibility of
damaging your hearing. Reduce the volume of your device to a reasonable level to avoid
permanent hearing damage. If you hear ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or shut
off your device. This device has been tested with the supplied earphones. In order to
preserve your hearing, it is advised that you use only the following headphone models:
the earphones supplied with your device, or any other headphones that respect the cur-
rent regulations. Other types of headphones may produce higher volume levels.

Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is il-
legal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations created by obstructed hearing.
Even if your headphones or earphones 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 vol-
umes of sound. What sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting the volume of your device at a safe level BEFORE your
hearing adapts.
To establish a safe volume level:
a. Start your volume control at a low setting.
b. 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.
