Safety precautions

  • Follow applicable laws regarding mobile phone and headphone use if using headphones while driving.
  • Do not use the product in places where the inability to hear ambient sound presents a serious risk (such as at railroad crossings, train stations, and construction sites).
  • To prevent damage to your hearing, do not raise the volume too high. Listening to loud sounds for an extended period may cause temporary or permanent hearing loss.
  • Discontinue use if skin irritation results from direct contact with the product.
  • Do not disassemble, modify or attempt to repair the product to avoid electric shock, malfunction or fire.
  • Be careful to avoid pinching yourself between the housing and the arm of the product.

Notes on use

  • To ensure compatibility and correct usage, always consult the user manual of any device before connecting the product to it.
  • Audio-Technica will not be liable in any way for any loss of data in the unlikely event that such losses should occur while using the product.
  • On public transport systems or in other public places, keep the volume low so as not to disturb other people.
  • Minimize the volume on your audio device before connecting the product to avoid hearing damage from sudden exposure to excessive volume.
  • Do not subject the product to strong impact to avoid electric shock, malfunction or fire.
  • Do not store the product under direct sunlight, near heating devices or in a hot, humid or dusty place to avoid malfunction. Do not allow the product to get wet.
  • When the product is used for a long time, the product may become discolored due to ultraviolet light (especially direct sunlight) or wear.
  • Connect/disconnect the included cable by holding the plug. Pulling directly on the cable can result in a broken wire and the risk of electric shock.
  • The cable may become caught or severed if the product is placed in a bag without adequate protection.
  • When you are not using the product, store it in the included pouch.
  • Do not wind the cable around your portable audio device. This may damage or sever the cable.
  • Use only the included cable. Using a different cable may result in product malfunction.
  • Lengthening the headphone cable requires a separate extension cable available from your dealer.
  • Since natural wood may deform or change color under conditions like a hot, humid, dry, ultraviolet (sunlight, fluorescent) environment, be careful in these environments.
  • The wooden housing may scratch or split if subjected to impact.
  • The pattern of the wood grain varies on the right and left because the product is made of natural wood, but this will not affect the performance.

Care

  • Get into the habit of regularly cleaning the product to ensure that it will last for a long time. Do not use alcohol, paint thinners or other solvents for cleaning purposes.
  • Use a dry cloth to clean the headphones.
  • After using the included cable, clean it with a dry cloth if sweat or dirt is present. Failure to clean the cable may cause it to deteriorate and harden over time, resulting in malfunction.
  • Wipe the plugs on the included cable with a dry cloth if dirty. Using the plug without cleaning it can cause sound skipping or distortion.
  • To clean the earpads and headband, wipe with a dry cloth. Earpads and headbands may fade if sweat or water dries on them. If the earpads and headband get wet, we recommend wiping them with a dry cloth and allowing them to dry in the shade.
  • For long-time storage, keep the product in a well-ventilated place without high temperatures and humidity.
  • The earpads deteriorate over time due to use or storage. For information about replacing earpads or other parts, or for information about other serviceable parts, contact your local Audio-Technica dealer.
