WARNING
Hearing Comfort and Well-Being
• Do not play your personal audio at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against
continuous extended play.
• If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.
Traffic Safety
• Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is
illegal in many areas.
• You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially
hazardous situations.
• Do not turn up the volume so high that you cannot hear sound around you.
CAUTION
• Stop using the headphones if they are causing great discomfort or irritation on the
skin and the ears. They may damage your skin and cause rash or inflammation.
• If ear piece or other parts of headphones become lodged in your ear, be careful not
to push it deep into the ear canal and seek skilled medical assistance to remove
the piece. Damage to the ear may be caused by non-professionals attempting to
remove the piece.
• Store the ear pieces in a safe place where children cannot reach them to avoid the
risk of a possible accident or hazard such as swallowing them.
• In dryer air conditions such as in winter, you may feel some static shock when using
the headphones.
• When in use you may sometimes hear friction noise, this is caused by the cord
rubbing against your clothing while walking or during exercise.
Using the headphones
1
Be sure to use correct ear piece for left and right ear.
2
The medium-size silicone ear pieces are attached when
purchased. You may not enjoy the bass sound fully if the
ear pieces do not fit your ears. To enjoy better sound while
reducing sound leakage, choose the other pair of ear
pieces (three sizes of silicone ear pieces) and adjust their
positions to fit them to your ears.
3
When wearing the headphones, adjust the position of the
supports so that they fit your ears.

About the ear pieces
Two types of ear piece are provided: standard type ear pieces, and open ear type
pieces that make it easier to hear external sounds. Use the most suitable ear
pieces for your listening environment.
CAUTION
• Although the open type ear pieces are designed so that external sounds can be
heard well, make sure that you pay sufficient attention to your surroundings while
using them.
• Do not turn up the volume so high that you cannot hear sound around you.
For replacing the ear pieces...
• Attach the ear pieces firmly when replacing them; failure to do so may result in
the ear pieces getting lodged in your ear canal when removed, thus becoming a
possible health hazard.
• For replacement of the ear pieces, please consult your local dealer.
Notes on using ear pieces
• The ear pieces deteriorate with age even in normal use and maintenance.
• When the ear pieces get dirty, detach the ear pieces and wash them in water-
diluted detergent. After washing, dry the ear pieces and attach to the headphones.
• When using the open type ear pieces, bass sounds will be weaker than when using
the standard type.
