instructions
Be sure to observe the following
guidelines when using your headphones.
• Listen at reasonable volumes for
reasonable periods of time.
• Be careful not to adjust the volume
continuously upwards as your
hearing adapts.
• Do not turn up the volume so high

you.
• You should use caution or
temporarily 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

and 45°C (113 °F) with up to 90%
relative humidity.
• Battery life may be shorter in high or
low temperature conditions.
• Replacement of a battery with an
incorrect type risks severely
damaging the headphones and the
battery (for example, in the case of
some lithium battery types).
Danger
To avoid hearing damage, limit the time you
use headphones at high volume and set the

excessive heat such as sunshine, re or the like.
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly
replaced. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type.
To achieve the specic IP rating, the charging
slot cover must be closed.
Disposal of a battery into re or a hot oven, or
mechanically crushing or cutting a battery, can
result in an explosion.
Leaving a battery in an extremely high
temperature surrounding environment can
