Introduction
Earbuds and Headphones
To avoid damaging your hearing:
■ Using earbuds or headphones for an extended time can cause serious damage to your
hearing.
■ If you are exposed to a sound louder than 85 dB for an extended time, your hearing may
be adversely affected. The louder the sound, the more seriously your hearing may be
impaired. Ordinary conversations are about 50-60 dB; road noise levels are about 80 dB.
■ We strongly advise you to set the volume level to medium, which is usually less than 2/3 of
the maximum.
■ If you hear ringing in your ear(s), lower the volume or stop using the earbuds or
headphones.
To avoid risk of traffic accidents:
■ Do not use earbuds or headphones while operating a bicycle, automobile, or motorcycle.
Not only is it dangerous, it may be prohibited by law in some areas.
■ Pay attention! Using earbuds or headphones while crossing traffic can lead to serious
accidents.
■ For your safety, make sure the earbud or headphone cable does not get in the way of your
arm or other surrounding objects while you’re walking or exercising.
