SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Risk of injury
- We would like to point out that excessively high volumes and long listening times may cause hearing damage. Hearing defects always constitute an irreversible impairment of hearing ability. If you suffer from tinnitus, do not use headphones or reduce the volume.
- When using the headset, please make sure that the volume is turned down to minimum. Adjust the volume after putting on the headset.
Danger to life
- Headphones drastically reduce perception of external sounds. Using headphones in road traffic can be potentially dangerous. The user’s hearing must not be impaired to the extent that it causes road safety risks. Please also make sure that you do not use the headphones in traffic, especially within an area of potentially dangerous machines and tools.
- Furthermore, avoid using headphones in situations where hearing must not be affected, especially when crossing a railway crossing or at a construction site.
