Danger of hearing damage due to high volumes
This is a professional receiver. Commercial use is subject to the rules and regula-
tions of the trade association responsible. Sennheiser, as the manufacturer, is
therefore obliged to expressly point out possible health risks arising from use.
The EK 1039 receiver is capable of producing sound pressure levels exceeding
85 dB (A). 85 dB (A) is the sound pressure corresponding to the maximum permis-
sible volume which is by law (in some countries) allowed to affect your hearing for
the duration of a working day. It is used as a basis according to the specifications
of industrial medicine. Higher volumes or longer durations can damage your
hearing. At higher volumes, the duration must be shortened in order to prevent
hearing damage. The following are sure signs that you have been subjected to
excessive noise for too long a time:
•
You can hear ringing or whistling sounds in your ears.
•
You have the impression (even for a short time only) that you can no longer
hear high notes.
Inform the users of your Tourguide application about these facts and, if necessary,
ask them to set the volume to a medium level.
