Preparation
Set the volume to the lowest setting before you
begin listening. After you begin listening, adjust the
volume to a comfortable level.
Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over
time, your ears adapt to the volume level, so a vol-
ume level that does not cause discomfort might still
damage your hearing.
Traffic Safety
Do not wear an earphone or headphones while you drive
a vehicle or ride a bicycle. This can create a traffic haz-
ard and can be illegal in some areas.
Even though some earphones and headphones let you
hear some outside sounds when you listen at normal
levels, they still can present a traffic hazard.
