Hearing safety

Listen at a moderate volume.

• Using headphones at a high volume can impair

your hearing.This product can produce sounds in decibel

ranges that may cause hearing loss for a normal person, even

for exposure less than a minute.The higher decibel ranges are

offered for those that may have already experienced some

hearing loss.

• Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing ‘comfort level’

adapts to higher volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening,

what sounds ‘normal’ can actually be loud and harmful to your

hearing.To guard against this, set your volume to a safe level

before your hearing adapts and leave it there.

To establish a safe volume level:

• Set your volume control at a low setting.

• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and

clearly, without distortion.

Listen for reasonable periods of time:

• Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally ‘safe’ levels, can

also cause hearing loss.

• Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate

breaks.

Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your

headphones.

• Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.

• Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.

• Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s

around you.

• You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in

potentially hazardous situations. Do not use headphones while

operating a motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.; it may

create a trafc hazard and is illegal in many areas.

•The type plate is located on the back of the product.
