Danger due to high volumes
These products are capable of producing sound pressure exceeding 85 dB(A).
85 B(A) is the sound pressure corresponding to the maximum permissible volume
which is by law (in some countries) allowed to affect your hearing for the duration
of a working day. It is used as a basis according to the specifications of industrial
medicine. Higher volumes or longer durations can damage your hearing. At higher
volumes, the duration must be shortened in order to prevent hearing damage.
The following are sure signs that you have been subjected to excessive noise for
too long a time:
• You can hear ringing or whistling sounds in your ears.
• You have the impression (even for a short time only) that you can no longer
hear high notes.
