Notes on headphones
Concerning Road Safety
Do not use headphones while driving, cycling, or operating any
motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
many areas. It can also be potentially dangerous to play your
headsets at high volume while walking, especially at pedestrian
crossings. You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue
use in potentially hazardous situations.
Preventing hearing damage
Do not use headphones at high volume. Hearing experts advise
against continuous, loud and extended play. If you experience a
ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.
Caring for others
Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you to hear
outside sounds and to be considerate to the people around you.

sunlight, moisture, sand, dust or mechanical shock. Never
leave the Walkman in a car parked in the sun.

drop-out or excessive noise occurs, clean the head and tape
path with alcohol.
