Operating and storage temperatures and
humidity
• Store in a place where the temperature is
between -20°C (-4°F) and 50°C (122 °F) with
up to 90% relative humidity.
• Operate in a place where the temperature is
between 0°C (32°F) and 45°C (113 °F) with up
to 90% relative humidity.
• Battery life may be shorter in high or low
temperature conditions.
1 Important
safety
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 that you
can't hear what's around 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 recommended and may be
illegal in some areas.
• For your safety, avoid distractions from music
or phone calls while in traffic or other
potentially dangerous environments.
Danger
To avoid hearing damage, limit the time you
use headphones at high volume and set the
volume to a safe level. The louder the volume,
the shorter the safe listening time is.
Hearing safety
General information
To avoid damage or malfunction:
Caution
Do not expose headphones to excessive heat.
Do not drop your headphones.
Headphones shall not be exposed to dripping or
splashing. (Refer to the IP rating of speci�c
product)
Do not allow your headphones to be submerged
in water.
Do not charge your headphones when the
connector or socket is wet.
Do not use any cleaning agents containing
alcohol, ammonia, benzene, or abrasives.
Use a clean, damp cloth to clean your
headphones - especially the sound conduits and
the microphone holes - regularly and avoid
buildup of substances such as sweat or earwax.
If any sweat or water droplets are left in the
sound conduits, air holes or microphone holes,
the sound level will temporarily drop or cut out
entirely. This is not a malfunction. Use a soft,
damp cloth to dry the headphones thoroughly.
Alternatively, remove the earbud tips, turn the
sound conduits downward and gently tap the
headphones about �ve times on a dry cloth or
similar to remove any water collected inside.
Be sure the headphones are completely dry
before charging and using. Avoid using
disposable alcohol pads or other substances for
cleaning.
The integrated battery shall not be exposed to
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 speci�c 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 result
in an explosion or the leakage of �ammable
liquid or gas.
A battery subjected to extremely low air pressure
may result in an explosion or the leakage of
�ammable liquid or gas.
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).
If the headset is not used for a long time, the
rechargeable battery will begin to lose its charge.
To avoid this loss, please fully charge the battery
at least once every three months.
To avoid risk of �re, the equipment is supplied
only by external power source which output shall
comply with PS1 (with output capacity less than
15W).
