User Manual V1.0 Copyright © Mindset Innovation, Inc. 2
Handle enophones with care. They contain sensitive electronic components, including batteries, and can be damaged, impair
functionality, or cause injury if dropped, burned, punctured, crushed, disassembled, or if exposed to excessive heat or liquid or
to environments having high concentrations of industrial chemicals, including near evaporating liquified gasses such as helium.
Do not use damaged enophones.
Batteries
Don’t attempt to replace enophones batteries yourself –you may damage the batteries, which could cause overheating and
injury.
Charging
Charge enophones with the charging cable and a power adapter or computer. Only charge with an adapter that is compliant
with applicable country regulations and international and regional safety standards, including the International Standard for
Safety of Information Technology Equipment (IEC 60950-1). Other adapters may not meet applicable safety standards, and
charging with such adapters could pose a risk of death or injury. Using damaged cables or chargers, or charging when moisture
is present, can cause fire, electric shock, injury, or damage to the case or other property.
Important note: Do not use or wear enophones when plugged into a power source.
Prolonged heat exposure
Avoid prolonged skin contact with a device, its power adapter, the charging cable, or the connector when plugged into a power
source, because it may cause discomfort or injury. Don’t sit or sleep on the product, charging cable, connector, power adapter,
or place them under a blanket, pillow, or your body while the device is charging. Take special care if you have a physical
condition that affects your ability to detect heat against your body.
Water, moisture, and heat
Do not use enophones near water or when you are wet. Enophones are not water resistant.
Hearing loss
Listening to sound at high volumes may permanently damage your hearing. Background noise, as well as continued exposure to
high volume levels, can make sounds seem quieter than they actually are. Check the volume before playing audio. Do not wear
the headphones if they emit any loud unusual noise. If this happens turn the headphones off and contact a Mindset service
representative.
WARNING: to prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long periods.

Driving hazard
Use of enophones while operating a vehicle is not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Check and obey the applicable
laws and regulations on the use of headphones while operating a vehicle. Be careful and attentive while driving. Stop listening to
your audio device if you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle or performing any activity that
requires your full attention.
Use in appropriate contexts
Enophones are intended to be used indoors in a properly seated position and not intended for use while walking down the
street or driving. Failure to pay full attention during walking could result in death, serious injury, or property damage. Quick
movement while wearing enophones may cause irritation to the scalp. You assume full responsibility and risk for not following
this operating instruction.
Do not open, modify, or attempt repair
Aside from the removable electrodes, there are no serviceable parts inside the device. Always refer servicing to qualified service
personnel only. Changes or modifications to the device are not approved by Mindset and could void the warranty and user’s
authority to operate the device.
Choking hazard
Enophones electrodes and accessories may present a choking hazard or cause other injury to small children. Keep them away
from small children.
Medical device interference
Enophones contain components and radios that emit electromagnetic fields. Enophones also contain magnets. These
electromagnetic fields and magnets may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators, or other medical devices. Maintain a safe
distance of separation between your medical device and enophones. Consult your physician and medical device manufacturer
for information specific to your medical device. Stop using enophones if you suspect they are interfering with your pacemaker,
defibrillator, or any other medical device.
Skin irritation
Headphones can lead to ear infections if not properly cleaned. Clean enophones regularly with a soft lint-free cloth. Do not get
moisture in any openings, or use aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives. If a skin problem develops, discontinue use. If the
problem persists, consult a physician.
Electrostatic shock
When using enophones in areas where the air is very dry, it is easy to build up static electricity and possible for your ears to
receive a small electrostatic discharge from enophones. To minimize the risk of electrostatic discharge, avoid using enophones
in extremely dry environments, or touch a grounded unpainted metal object before wearing enophones.

Important handling information
Discoloration of the enophones and charging cables after regular use is normal. Dirt, debris, and exposure to moisture may
cause discoloration. Before cleaning, disconnect the charging cable from both your enophones and your computer or power
adapter. Clean the products with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use liquids or cleaning products.

rechargeable batteries. Removal of the rechargeable lithium ion battery in this product should be conducted only by a qualified
professional.
