Important Safety Information:

1. Avoiding water and wet locations

Do not use the product in rain, or near washbasins or other wet locations. Take care not to spill any food or liquid into the product. In case the product gets wet, unplug all cables, turn it off and allow it to dry thoroughly before turning it on again.

2. Avoid hearing damage

Permanent hearing loss may occur if earphones are used at high volume. Set the volume to a safe level. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound that may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears of muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect your hearing:

• limit the amount of time you use earphones at high volume
• avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings
• turn the volume down if you can't hear people speaking near you
