any motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is 
illegal in some areas.  It can also be potentially dangerous to 
play your headsets at high volume while walking, especially 
at pedestrian crossings. You should exercise extreme caution 
or discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

Preventing hearing damage

Avoid using headphones at high volume. Hearing experts 
advise against continuous, loud and extended play. If 
you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or 
discontinue use.

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you 
to hear outside sounds and to be considerate to the people
