Safety Instructions

Risk of injury

• We would like to point out that excessively high volumes and long listening times may cause hearing damage. Hearing defects always constitute an irreversible impairment of hearing ability. If you suffer from tinnitus, do not use headphones or reduce the volume.
• According to regulations to protect employees against damages caused by noise and vibrations, please follow these instructions:
  • 85 dB SPL for max. 8 hours
  • 88 dB SPL for max. 4 hours
  • 91 dB SPL for max. 2 hours
  • 94 dB SPL for max. 1 hour

Danger to life

⚠️ Headphones drastically reduce perception of external sounds. Using headphones in road traffic can be potentially dangerous. The user's hearing must not be impaired to the extent that it causes road safety risks. Please also make sure that you do not use the headphones in traffic, especially within an area of potentially dangerous machines and tools.

Furthermore, avoid using headphones in situations where hearing must not be affected, especially when crossing a railway crossing or at a construction site.

Liability / intended use

• Do not use the product for any application which is not described in this product information.
• beyerdynamic is not liable for improper use of the product and its accessories.

Design Features

The DT 880 PRO is a semi-open dynamic headphone and provides a very linear sound as well as an excellent sound location. Due to the semi-open design ambient sound is attenuated, but can be still perceived.

Application

• The DT 880 PRO was designed for critical music and sound monitoring in an open environment especially for acoustic and classical music.
• The transducers are fitted to adjustable yokes which should be positioned to fully enclose the ear. This will provide the optimum ear/speaker position for accurate sound monitoring.
• The cord is terminated with a high-quality gold plated mini-jack and a 1/4" stereo jack adapter.

Caution: Connect the jack connector of the headphone cable to a headphone socket only! If you connect the headphones to any other jack socket, the headphones could be damaged.

Maintenance

• As with any equipment which will be used in close proximity to sensitive areas of the body, it is essential that the ear pads and headband are kept clean. Use a damp cloth for cleaning using warm water only taking care not to allow any water drops into the ear cups or transducers.
• If necessary, you can carefully remove the ear pads and headband pad and clean them with mild soapy water.
• WARNING: Never use any solvent cleaning agents! Furthermore, the pads must be completely dry before they are attached to the headphone again.
• WARNING: Never use a vacuum cleaner for cleaning the headphones, as this may cause irreparable damage.
• Should it become necessary to replace the ear pads or the headband pad, refer to "Replacement parts and Accessories". You can easily do this yourself.
• If other components have to be replaced, please contact your local beyerdynamic representative.
