• Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume
increases, less time is required before your hearing
could be affected.
• 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.
