ger on the appartus (e.g. liquid filled objects,lighted candles)

Hearing Safety
Listen at a moderate volume:
• Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing. This
product can produce sounds in decibel ranges that may cause hearing
loss for a normal person, even for exposure less than a minute. The higher
decibel ranges are offered for those that may have already experienced some
hearing loss.
• Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to high-
er volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds "normal" can
actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. To guard against this, set your
volume to a safe level before your hearing adapts and leave it there.
GENERAL INFORMATION
To establish a safe volume level:
• Set your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, with-
out distortion.
Listen for reasonable periods of time:
• Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally "safe" levels, can also cause
hearing loss.
• Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate breaks.
Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your head-
phones:
• Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.
• Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.
• Do not turn up the volume so high that you can't hear what's around you.
• You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations.
Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.;
it may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
