Precautions

• Listening with headphones at high volume may affect your

hearing. For traffic safety, do not use while driving or cycling.

• Do not subject the headphones to excessive shock.

• Handle the driver units carefully.

• Do not put weight or pressure on the headphones as it may cause

the headphones to deform during long storage.

• The ear cushions may deteriorate due to long-term storage or use.

• The ear cushions are hand-made parts so the stitches and grain of

each may differ.

• Do not leave the jack plug dirty otherwise the sound may be

distorted.

• Clean the headphones with a soft dry cloth. Do not blow on the

units when cleaning. Do not allow the plug to become dirty,

otherwise the sound may deteriorate.

• Do not leave the stereo headphones in a location subject to direct

sunlight, heat or moisture.

• Because the headphones are of a high density enclosure, forcing

them against your ears may result in eardrum damage. Avoid using

the headphones where they are liable to be struck by people or

other objects, such as a ball, etc.

Pressing the headphones against your ears may produce a

diaphragm click sound. This is not a malfunction.

Optional replacement ear cushions can be ordered from your

nearest Sony dealer.
