Hearing safety
Observe the following guidelines when using your

• Be careful not to adjust the volume higher as your hearing adapts.
• Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around
you.

hazardous situations.
• Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle, cycling,
or skateboarding, etc. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
many areas.
Important (for models supplied with headphones):
Philips guarantees compliance with the maximum sound power of its
