Hearing safety
Danger
 To avoid hearing damage, limit the time you use headphones at high volume and set the volume to a safe level. The louder the volume, the shorter the safe listening time is.
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
continuously upwards 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. · Excessive sound pressure from earpieces and headphones can cause hearing loss. · Using headphones with both ears covered while driving is not recommended and may be illegal in some areas. · For your safety, avoid distractions from music or phone calls while in traffic or other potentially dangerous environments.
