Important Safety Information

Listen Responsibly

To avoid hearing damage, make sure that the volume on your music player is

turned down before connecting your headphones. After placing headphones

in your ears, gradually turn up the volume until you reach a comfortable

listening level. Noise levels are measured in decibels (dB); exposure to any

noise at or above 85 dB can cause gradual hearing loss. Monitor your use;

hearing loss is a function of loudness versus time. The louder it is, the less time

you can be exposed to it. The softer it is, the more time you can listen to it.

This decibel (dB) table compares some common sounds and shows how they

rank in potential harm to hearing.

UK English

“…. a typical person can safely listen to an iPod for 4.6 hours per

day at 70% volume.”

“…. knowing the levels one is listening to music at, and for how long, is

extremely important.”

From http://www.cbc.ca/health/story/2006/10/19/music-earphones.html

Get the most out of your equipment and enjoy great audio performance even

at safe levels. Our headphones will allow you to hear more details at lower

volume levels than ever before.

Use Responsibly

Do not use headphones when it’s unsafe to do so – while operating a vehicle,

crossing streets, or during any activity or in an environment where your full

attention to your surroundings is required. It is dangerous to drive while

wearing headphones, and in many places illegal because it decreases

your chances of hearing life-saving sounds outside of your vehicle, such as

another car’s horn and emergency vehicle sirens. Please avoid wearing your

headphones while driving. Use an FM transmitter to listen to your mobile media

devices instead. Learn how to establish a safe listening level and review other

important safety guidelines from the Consumer Electronics Association at

www.ce.org and the Deafness Research Foundation at www.drf.org.

Putting on Powerbeats

1. Each headphone is marked with either an R, for right, or an L, for left.

2. Hook the rubber sport hook over the back of your ear and insert the silicon

eartip into your ear.

3. Push on the “b” and make any other necessary adjustments to get the

silicone eartip further into your ear until you obtain a good seal.

4. Repeat with the other ear.

UK English

Eartips and Maintenance

Eartip Selection

The tips on your Powerbeats make the difference between good sound and

great sound. With the right t, you’ll receive increased bass response, better

tonal balance and the headphones will be more comfortable. Because

everyone’s ears are unique, Beats supplies several sizes of eartips. Finding the

perfect t with the correct tip is a matter of experimentation. Try out all the

eartips included with your Powerbeats headphones to nd the best t for the

size of your ear canal.

Eartip Fit

Unlike many in-ear headphones, Powerbeats are not designed to completely

seal out external noise. With Powerbeats, you will be able to hear the outside

world while running and biking in or alongside trafc. However, eartip t is still

important for sound performance. The eartips you use shouldn’t feel like they

are “over-stufng” your ears, yet they shouldn’t feel like they are loose within

your ear canal.

UK English

Proper Insertion and Removal of Eartips

1. You may wish to lightly moisten your eartips for easier insertion.

2. Using your right hand, grasp the right headphone.

3. With your left hand, pull up and back on your right ear to straighten your

ear canal.

4. Carefully insert your right headphone,

rubber eartip rst, so that it seals

completely and comfortably in your

ear. DO NOT insert the eartip so deeply

that your ear canal feels completely

“plugged”.

5. Repeat this procedure for your left ear.

6. When you’ve nished your listening

session, remove your in-ear headphones

slowly with a twisting motion to gradually

break the seal.
