Precautions
 Please keep your headphones clean
at all times especially inside the
rubber earbud. (see fig. )
If any dust or ear wax inside the
earbud, you may experience some
listening difficulties.
 Listening with headphones at high
volume may affect your hearing. For
traffic safety, do not use while
driving or cycling.
 The earbuds may deteriorate due to
long-term storage or use.
 Install the earbuds firmly onto the
headphones. If an earbud
accidentally detaches and is left in
your ear, it may cause injury.
 Be careful not to allow any buttons
to be unintentionally pressed when
the headphones with iPod connected
are in the supplied carrying pouch,
etc.
Note on static electricity
In particularly dry air conditions, mild
tingling may be felt on your ears. This
is a result of static electricity
accumulated in the body, and not a
malfunction of the headphones.
The effect can be minimized by
wearing clothes made from natural
materials.
EP-EX10A is available (sold
separately) as optional replacement
earbuds.
EP-EX10A offers 4 types of the
