Important Monster®Performance
and Safety Tips
Listen Responsibly
To avoid hearing damage, make sure that the volume on your music
player is turned down before connecting your headphones. After
placing headphones in your ears, gradually turn up the volume
until you reach a comfortable listening level.
Noise levels are measured in decibels (dB), exposure to any noise
at or above 85 dB can cause gradual hearing loss.
Monitor your use; hearing loss is a function of loudness versus time.
The louder it is, the less time you can be exposed to it. The softer it is,
the more time you can listen to it. Refer to the chart* below.
This decibel (dB) table compares some common sounds and shows how
they rank in potential harm to hearing.

“…. a typical person can safely listen to an iPod for 4.6 hours per day
at 70% volume.”
“….knowing the levels one is listening to music at, and for how long
is extremely important.”
From http://www.cbc.ca/health/story/2006/10/19/music-earphones.html
Get the most out of your equipment and enjoy great audio
performance even at safe levels. Our headphones will allow
you to hear more details at lower volume levels than ever before.

Use Responsibly
Do not use headphones when it’s unsafe to do so – while operating
a vehicle, crossing streets, or during any activity or in an environment
where your full attention to your surroundings is required.
It ‘s dangerous to drive while wearing headphones, and in many places,
illegal because it decreases your chances of hearing life-saving sounds
outside of your vehicle, such as another car’s horn and emergency
vehicle sirens.
Please avoid wearing your headphones while driving. Use one
of Monster’s FM transmitters to listen to your mobile media
devices instead.
Learn how to establish a safe listening level and review other
important safety guidelines from the Consumer Electronics Association
at www.ce.org and the Deafness Research Foundation at www.drf.org.
