•  You should use caution or tempo-rarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
•  Excessive sound pressure from earpieces and headphones can cause hearing loss.
•  Using headphones with both ears covered while driving is not recom-mended and may be illegal in some areas while driving.
