Road Safety
Do not use headphones while driving, cycling, or operating any motorized vehicle. It
may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas. It can also be potentially
dangerous to play at a high volume while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings.
You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations.
Preventing hearing damage
Avoid using the headphones at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against
continuous, loud and extended play. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce
the volume or discontinue use.
Caring for others
Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you to hear outside sounds and
to be considerate to the people around you.
Warning
If lightning occurs while you are using the Reader, take off the headphones
immediately.
