Thank you for selecting the Soul Byrd in-ear head-
phones.
For your be possible liening experience, you will
find a description on how to use your in-ear head-
phones.
Safety nruct ons
• Read these operating inructions carefully and
completely before using the product.
• Do not use the product when it is damaged.
• beyerdynamic GmbH & Co. KG will not be liable if
any damage, injury or accident occurs due to
negligent, incorrect or inappropriate operation of
the product.
Avo d damage to your health and acc dents
• When you connect the in-ear headphones,
please make sure that the volume level is set to
minimum. Adju the volume level only aer
inseing the eaips. To avoid possible hearing
damage, do not use your in-ear headphones for
extended periods of time at high volume. The
ability to hear your own voice while liening and
speaking normally with in-ear headphones can
serve as a measure of correct volume
adjument. In-ear headphones can be up to
6-9 dB louder than classic headphones because
they are directly in the ear canal, increasing the
risk of hearing damage.
• If you suer from tinnitus, do not use headphones
or reduce the volume.
• Always ensure an adequate volume level. It is
advisable to keep liening times as sho as
possible at high volume levels. This also shows an
example from working life: According to the
Occupational Health and Safety Regulations of
German trade associations, noise pollution e.g. in

engl sh
Soul Byrd – In-ear Headphones 5
the workplace mu not exceed 85 dB (room
volume level) during a maximum permissible
liening time of 8 hours. If the volume level is
increased by 3 dB respectively, the permissible
liening time is cut in half, i.e. at 88 dB, the
liening time is 4 hours, at 91 dB 2 hours, etc.
• When using in-ear headphones, it is impoant to
clean the eaips, as they quickly become diy
and increase the risk of ear infection due to an
increased number of germs in the ear. Since the
in-ear devices isolate the ear canal, a warm and
humid “climate” is created in the ear increasing
the multiplication of germs.
• Keep small pas such as product, packaging and
accessories away from children and pets.
Accidental ingeion may cause suocation.
Danger to l fe!
• In-ear headphones draically reduce perception
of external sounds. Using headphones in road
traic can be potentially dangerous. The user’s
hearing mu not be impaired to the extent that it
causes road safety risks. Please also make sure
that you do not use the headphones in traic,
especially within an area of potentially
dangerous machines and tools.
• Fuhermore, avoid using headphones in
situations where hearing mu not be aected,
especially when crossing a railway crossing or at
a conruction site.
R sk of njury!
• Avoid sudden movements when using wired in-
ear headphones. You might seriously hu yourself
especially if you wear piercings, earrings, glasses,
etc., where the wire can get caught.

Changed acou c percept on
• For many people, wearing in-ear headphones
needs getting used to, because acouic
perception of their own voice and of the body as
well as inner ear sounds which occur while
walking dier from the “normal” situation without
in-ear headphones. However, this initially range
sensation usually diminishes aer wearing them
for a while.
L ab l ty / ntended use
• Do not use the product for any application which
is not describe in this product information.
beyerdynamic is not liable for improper use of the
product and its accessories.

Vielen Dank für Ihr Verauen und dass Sie sich für
den Kauf des Soul Byrd In-Ear-Kopfhörers ent-

Für Ihr bemögliches Hörerlebnis möchten wir
Ihnen eine Beschreibung geben, wie Sie den In-Ear-

• Lesen Sie diese Bedienungsanleitung sorgf ltig
und voll ndig durch, bevor Sie das Produkt be-
nutzen.
• Verwenden Sie das Produkt nicht, wenn es
besch digt i.

übernimmt keine Haung für Sch den am Pro-

• Wenn Sie den In-Ear-Kopfhörer anschließen,
achten Sie darauf, dass die Laut rke auf Mini-
mum eingeellt i. Regeln Sie die Laut rke er
nach Einsetzen des Hörers. Zur Vermeidung eines
möglichen Gehörschadens sollten Sie Ihren In-
Ear-Kopfhörer nicht für l ngere Zeit bei hoher
Laut rke benutzen. Als Maß für die Einellung
der Laut rke dient die Prüfung, ob Sie beim
Hören und gewöhnlichem Sprechen mit In-Ear-
Kopfhörer noch Ihre eigene Stimme wahrnehmen
können.
• Wir möchten Sie darauf hinweisen, dass zu hohe
Laut rken und zu lange Hörzeiten das Gehör
sch digen können. Hörsch den ellen immer
eine irreversible Beeintr chtigung des
Hörvermögens dar. In-Ear-Kopfhörer können um
6-9 dB lauter werden als klassische Kopfhörer, da

deutsch

sie direkt im Gehörgang liegen, was das Risiko auf
Gehörsch den erhöht.
• Sollten Sie an Tinnitus leiden verzichten Sie besser
auf den Gebrauch von In-Ear-Kopfhörern bzw.
reduzieren Sie die Laut rke.
• Achten Sie ets auf eine angemessene Laut-
 rke. Als Fauformel gilt: je höher die Laut-
 rke, deo kürzer die Hörzeit. Das zeigt auch
ein Beispiel aus dem Arbeitsleben: Gem ß der
Berufsgenossenschalichen Vorschri für Sicher-
heit und Gesundheit bei der Arbeit BGV B3 da
die L rmbelaung z.B. am Arbeitsplatz 85 dB
(Zimmerlaut rke) nicht überschreiten bei einer
maximal zul ssigen Hörzeit von 8 Stunden. Wird
die Laut rke jeweils um 3 dB erhöht, halbie
sich die zul ssige Hörzeit, d.h. bei 88 dB betr gt
die Hörzeit 4 Stunden, bei 91 dB 2 Stunden usw.
• Wichtig bei In-Ear-Kopfhörern i die S uberung
der Ohrpassücke, da diese schnell schmutzig
werden und durch einen erhöhten Keimpegel im
Ohr das Risiko auf eine Gehörgangsinfektion
eigern. Da die In-Ear-Ger te den Gehörgang
isolieren, bildet sich im Ohr ein feuchtwarmes
„Klima“, wodurch die Vermehrung der Keime
aneigt.
• Halten Sie Kleinteile wie Produkt-, Verpackungs-
und Zubehöeile von Kindern und Hauieren
fern. Beim versehentlichen Verschlucken beeht
Erickungsgefahr.
Lebensgefahr!
• In-Ear-Kopfhörer reduzieren die akuische
Außenwahrnehmung draisch. Die Verwendung
von In-Ear-Kopfhörern im Straßenverkehr birgt
großes Gef hrdungspotenzial. Das Gehör des
Benutzers da auf keinen Fall so ark beein-
tr chtigt werden, dass die Verkehrssicherheit
gef hrdet i. Bitte achten Sie zudem darauf, dass

Soul Byrd – In-Ear-Kopfhörer

Sie die In-Ear-Kopfhörer nicht im Aktionsbereich
von möglicherweise gef hrlichen Maschinen und
Arbeitsger ten verwenden.
• Vermeiden Sie außerdem den Gebrauch von In-
Ear-Kopfhörern in Situationen, in denen das
Hörvermögen nicht beeintr chtigt werden da,
insbesondere beim Überqueren eines Bahnüber-
gangs oder auf einer Bauelle.
Verletzungsgefahr!
• Bei kabelgebundenen In-Ear-Kopfhörern sollten
Sie heige Bewegungen vermeiden. Sie könnten
sich ernha verletzen, insbesondere, wenn Sie
Piercings, Ohrringe, Brille usw. tragen, an denen
das Kabel sich veangen kann
Verändee aku sche Wahrnehmung
• Für viele Menschen i das Tragen von In-Ear-
Kopfhörern gewöhnungsbedütig, da sich die
akuische Wahrnehmung der eigenen Stimme
und des Körpers sowie auretende Innenohr-
ger usche beim Laufen von der „normalen“
Situation ohne In-Ear-Kopfhörer unterscheiden.
Diese zun ch fremdaige Empfindung ver-
ringe sich jedoch gewöhnlich nach einiger Zeit
des Tragens.
