Listening Cautions
Hearing Safety
Listen at a moderate volume: Using headphones at a high
volume can impair your hearing. This product can produce
sounds in decibel ranges that may cause hearing loss for a
normal person, even for exposure less than a minute. The
higher decibel ranges are offered for those that may have
already experienced some hearing loss. Sound can be
deceiving. Over time your hearing ‘comfort level’ adapts to
higher volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening, what
sounds ‘normal’ can actually be loud and harmful to your
hearing. To guard against this, set your volume to a safe
level before your hearing adapts and leave it there. To
establish a safe volume level: Set your volume control at a
low setting. Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it
comfortably and clearly, without distortion. Listen for
reasonable periods of time: prolonged exposure to sound,
even at normally ‘safe’ levels, can also cause hearing loss.
Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take
appropriate breaks. Be sure to observe the following
guidelines when using your headphones. Listen at
reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time. Be
careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.
Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear
what’s around you. You should use caution or temporarily
discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations. Do not
use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle,
cycling, skateboarding, etc.; it may create a traffic hazard
and is illegal in many areas.
