Ultimate Ears UE4 0000-0 - Manual (Page 4)

Warnings
Be sure to read all warnings and instructions before using your UE ear monitors.
Always turn the volume down on your device before inserting UE ear monitors into your ears. Once the ear monitors are
inserted, gradually increase the volume to a moderate sound level.
Using monitors at high volumes can permanently damage your hearing. Ringing in your ears or other discomfort can
indicate that music volume is too high. Please review the following guidelines for the maximum time exposure to sound
pressure levels before hearing damage occurs.
Listening
Do not submerge or expose the ear monitors to water.
Remove ear monitors if they cause any discomfort or you have difficulty inserting the monitors. Remember, ears are
sensitive and you should never force anything into the ear canal.
Consult regularly with a physician or audiologist if you have problems hearing, excessive wax build-up, or any discomfort
after use.
These Custom ear monitors are intended for your personal use. They are custom fit your ear, please do not share with
others.
Hearing protection
At Ultimate Ears we are committed to hearing protection. Our personal monitors are designed to block harmful, often
destructive levels of sounds while delivering the clear, consistent mix you desire. Used wisely, Ultimate Ears personal
monitors can protect your hearing by significantly lowering ambient sound while allowing the user to listen at significantly
lower Sound Pressure Levels (SPL’s). Please be extremely careful with excessive volume directly at the ear.
Listen responsibly
Hearing health is critical to the enjoyment and to the quality of life. Protect your hearing by listening with your monitors
in a
responsible manner that protects your long term hearing health. According to OSHA (Occupational Safety Health
Administration 29CFR1910.95) the following SPL’s are recommended and deemed to be Permissible Noise Exposures:
Safe listening. Safe listening.
