  • Keep the volume low in public transport systems or other public places to avoid disturbing others.
  • Minimize the volume on your audio device before connecting the headphones to avoid hearing damage from sudden exposure to excessive volume.
  • In dry environments, a tingling sensation in the ears may be felt due to static electricity accumulated on the body, not due to a headphone malfunction.
  • Avoid subjecting the headphones to strong impact, direct sunlight, heating devices, hot, humid, or dusty places, and keep them dry.
  • Extended use of the headphones may cause discoloration due to ultraviolet light (especially direct sunlight) or wear.
  • Avoid excessive stress or pressure on the headphones to prevent damage or deformation.
  • Connect or disconnect the cable by holding the plug, not by pulling directly on the cable to avoid a broken wire and the risk of electric shock.
  • Do not wrap the cable around a rack, furniture, or any object and avoid pinching the cable.

Caution
