You should follow some common sense recommendations when using any portable
audio device:
•
Always turn the volume down before plugging the earphones into an audio source.
•
Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at which you can hear
adequately.
•
Be aware that you can adapt to higher volume settings over time, not realizing that the
higher volume may be harmful to your hearing.
•
When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the people speaking
near you or if the person sitting next to you can hear what you are listening to.
•
Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you choose to listen to your
portable device in a noisy environment, use noise-cancelling headphones to block out
background environmental noise. By blocking background environment noise, noise
cancelling headphones should allow you to hear the music at lower volumes than when
using earbuds.
•
Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume increases, less time is required before
you hearing could be affected.
•
Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, such as rock concerts,
that might cause temporary hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss might cause unsafe
volumes to sound normal.
•
Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you experience ringing in your
ears, hear muffled speech, or experience any temporary hearing difficulty after listening to
your portable audio device, discontinue use and consult your doctor.
