Important safety information
Avoiding hearing damage
Permanent hearing loss may occur if you use your
headset(Hands-free car kit) at a high volume. Set the volume to a safe level. Over
time you can become accustomed to a higher volume that may sound normal but
can be damaging to your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled
speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the
less time is required before your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest
that to protect your hearing:
•
Limit the amount of time you use the headset(Hands-free car kit) at high volume.
•
Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
•
Turn the volume down if you can't hear people speaking near you.
For information about how to set a maximum volume limit on your handset (Hands-
free car kit), please refer to the features guide for your handset.
