Batteries
� Do not peel off the covering on batteries and do not use if the covering has been peeled off. � Align the poles + and - correctly when inserting batteries. � Remove batteries if you do not intend to use the unit for a long time. � Do not throw into fire, short-circuit, disassemble, or subject to excessive heat. � Keep out of the reach of small children. Accidental swallowing of batteries can result in stomach and intestinal damage.
Allergies
Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with the earphones or any other parts that directly contact your skin. Continued use may cause rashes or other allergic reactions.
Listening caution
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous extended play. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.
EST. 1924
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas. You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations. Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear outside sounds don't turn up the volume so high that you can�t hear what�s around you. Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing �comfort level� adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds �normal� can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts. To establish a safe level: � Start your volume control at a low setting. � Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion. Once you have established a comfortable sound level: � Leave it there.
Caution: � Use only the provided shielded interface cables when connecting to computer. � To reduce risk of radio interference caused by headphone, earphone or microphone cable, only purchase accessories with cable length less than 3 m.
