Cautionary Notes to Computer Users

When using any headset with a computer, care should be taken in dry or low humidity environments to protect the user from
electrostatic discharge from the monitor (CRT). Computer monitors can induce a substantial electrostatic charge when turned on or off, or
when there is a power failure, and the resulting electrostatic discharge can be passed through the headset to ground. 

A user in close proximity to or touching the computer may feel a common “shock” sensation, similar to touching a doorknob after
walking across a carpet, causing no harm to the user. This discharge is entirely due to the computer monitor; the headset is merely the
shortest path to ground.

To minimize the possibility of electrostatic discharge through the headset, you can:

•  Use a grounded screen in front of the monitor.
•  Use static dissipative wrist straps.
•  Increase the relative humidity in the room to 60% or more.
•  Install static dissipative carpets or floor coverings (anti-static sprays can be helpful).
•  Remove the headset before turning the computer on or off.

GN Netcom, Inc. Profile headsets meet all OSHA, UL, FCC and CSA standards.
