Hearing safety

Listen at a moderate volume.

 Using earphones 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

earphones.

 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 earphones while

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