or e-mail [email protected],

Listening caution
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume. Hearing experts advise
against continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.
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 haz-
ardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the 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.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher vol-
umes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your
hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing
adapts.
To establish a safe level:
≥
Start your volume control at a low setting.
≥
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without
distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
≥
Leave it there.
