Cautions
- Please consider this manual as your map. Knowledge of Bluetooth and device connection is essential for the operation of this product. Therefore, we strongly advise that this manual is thoroughly read before beginning use, and referred to when in times of difficulty.
- Please do not let the earbuds come into contact with sharp edges, uneven surfaces, and metal parts, in a manner that can lead to some form of permanent external or internal damage.
- Please do not dismantle the product in any way, as it can lead to a fire or electrical breakdown and even completely damage the product. As this is extremely unsafe, we ask that any maintenance or servicing of the headphones is done only through a qualified service provider/manufacturer.
- Please do not remove the battery by yourself; this is a task meant to be managed by a service provider/manufacturer. Replacing the current battery with an ill-fitting set can result in a fire or electric hazard, therefore it is strongly advised against.
- Please clean the earbuds with the utmost of care using only a damp soft cloth, if cleaning is required. Please do not use any oily volatile liquid. In addition, ensure that the Headsets are kept away from extremely hot or cold substances.
- To avoid damage to your hearing, make sure that the volume on your music player is at an appropriate level when you are plugging into Nirvana. After wearing the earbuds, gradually turn up the volume until you reach a comfortable listening level. Exposure to any noise levels at or above 85 dB can gradually lead to a loss of hearing. Therefore, listening sessions at higher volumes should not be for too long. If you are planning to use the earbuds for extended periods of time, it is safer to keep the volume at a low level.
- Any damage to the earbuds that is NOT a manufacturing issue will make the product's warranty null and void. Please take the greatest care of your headphones to ensure that no such occurrences take place.
- Do not use earbuds when it is unsafe to be wearing them, such as while operating a vehicle, crossing a street, or during any activity where full awareness of your surroundings is required. This is because it is dangerous to drive while wearing headphones as it decreases your ability to hear sounds like another car's horn or an emergency vehicle's sirens. Therefore, please avoid wearing your Headsets while driving.
Advisable
The earbuds will start at a 100% volume, and may need to be reduced when first switched on. This can be done using the volume control on your Bluetooth device before use.
