Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when you
use headphones.
• Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended
high volume listening can lead to permanent hearing
loss.
• Set the volume to its lowest level before you begin listen-
ing. After you put on the headphones, adjust the volume
to a comfortable listening level.
• Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over time,
your ears adapt to the volume level, so a volume level
that does not cause discomfort might still damage your
hearing.
Traffic Safety
Do not wear headphones while operating a motor vehicle or
riding a bicycle. This can cause a traffic hazard and is illegal
in some areas.
Even though some headphones are designed to let you hear
outside sounds when you listen at normal volume levels, they
still present a traffic hazard.
