Compliance with Local Laws:
Comply with local laws and regulations related to the use of wearable technology, especially while driving or operating machinery. Using certain features of the glasses may be prohibited or unsafe in specific situations. -
Volume Levels:
Avoid listening to audio at excessively high volumes for extended periods, as it can harm your hearing. Keep the volume at a comfortable and safe level. -

Be aware that bone conduction technology allows you to hear audio while keeping your ears open. In-ear speakers, on the other hand, may block outside sounds. Choose the appropriate audio mode based on your environment and activities. -
Polarized Lenses:
While the glasses provide UV protection, do not rely solely on them for eye safety in intense sunlight. Wear appropriate sunglasses with UV protection when necessary, especially if you have sensitive eyes. -

Interference:

Proper Fit:
Ensure that the glasses fit comfortably and securely on your head. An ill- fitting pair of glasses can be uncomfortable and may not provide the best audio experience. -
Children and Pets:
Keep the glasses out of the reach of children and pets to prevent accidental damage or swallowing of small parts. -
Extreme Conditions:
Avoid exposing the glasses to extreme temperatures, moisture, or direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as this can affect their performance and longevity. -
