Appendix C: Headphone Safety
For your comfort, health and safety, be sure to observe the following guidelines when using headphones:
Hearing Comfort and Well Being
• Always turn volume down to the minimum setting before plugging in the headphones.
• Don’t listen at a high volume.
• Hearing experts advise against extended continuous listening through a headset.
• If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.
Safety
• Don’t use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle. This can create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
• Do not use headphones in potentially hazardous situations.
• Even if your headset is an 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.
