IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
There are three simple rules when using earphones. One, keep the volume at a
moderate level. If you must turn it up, please do so for short periods of time. Two,
if your ears begin to hurt, it’s probably because it’s too loud, so turn it down. Three,
use your head. Be smart about how you use your earphones in relation to the volume
level. Simple as that.
There are a few other safety recommendations that our lawyers want you to consider:
1. When your ears are exposed to high volume levels (greater than 85dB) for over an
hour, you may be permanently damaging your hearing and that isn’t cool. Ever.
Please use discretion regarding the volume you choose.
2. Before you plug the earphones into your device, be sure the device’s volume is
turned down, then gradually increase to a comfortable level. Not only will this
save you from the shock of a lot of volume all at once, it also saves your earphones
from a rush from zero output to high output.
3. We never recommend using your earphones when a failure to hear your surroundings
could be dangerous, such as while driving, biking, walking or jogging where traffic
is present and accidents could occur. If you do these activities with earphones,
do not fully insert the earphones into your ear and keep the volume low so you
can hear the surrounding ambient noise.
4. In rare instances, an ear cushion may come off in the ear canal when removing
the earphone. If this should occur and the ear cushion cannot easily be removed,
it is recommended that you promptly contact an audiologist or other medical
professional. A professional can use blunt tweezers to remove the ear cushion.
