Important Safety Information
23
• Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, such as rock
concerts, that might cause temporary hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss might
cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.
• Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you experience ringing in
your ears, hear muffled speech, or experience any temporary hearing difficulty after
listening to your portable audio device, discontinue use and consult your doctor.
