Sound can be deceiving. Over time your  
hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher vol-  
umes of sound. So after prolonged listening,  
what sounds "normal" can actually be loud  
and harmful to your hearing. To guard against  
this, set your volume to a safe level before  
your hearing adapts and leave it there.  
Safety information  
Place the set on a flat, hard and stable surface  
so that the system does not tilt.  
Where the MAINS plug or an appliance cou-  
pler is used as the disconnet device, the dis-  
connet device shall remain readily operable.  
Do not expose the set, batteries to humidity,  
rain, sand or excessive heat caused by heating  
equipment or direct sunlight.  
The apparatus shall not be exposed to  
dripping or splashing.  
Adequate ventilation with a minimum gap of  
15cm (6 inches) between the ventilation  
holes and surrounding surfaces is necessary  
to prevent heat build-up.  
Do not cover the ventilation openings with  
items such as newspapers, table-cloths,  
curtains, etc.  
No objects filled with liquids, such as vases,  
shall be placed on the apparatus.  
To establish a safe volume level:  
Set your volume control at a low setting.  
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear  
it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.  
Listen for reasonable periods of time:  
Prolonged exposure to sound, even at nor-  
mally "safe" levels, can also cause hearing loss.  
Be sure to use your equipment reasonably  
and take appropriate breaks.  
Be sure to observe the following guide-  
lines when using your headphones.  
Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable  
periods of time.  
Be careful not to adjust the volume as your  
hearing adapts.  
Do not turn up the volume so high that you  
can't hear what's around you.  
No naked flame sources, such as lighted  
candles, should be placed on the apparatus.  
The mechanical parts of the set contain  
self-lubricating bearings and must not be  
oiled or lubricated.  
You should use caution or temporarily discon-  
tinue use in potentially hazardous situations.  
Do not use headphones while operating a  
motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.;  
it may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in  
many areas.  
To clean the set, use a dry cloth. Do not  
use any cleaning agents containing alcohol,  
ammonia, benzene or abrasives as these  
may harm the housing.
