Precautions
About the in-ear headphones
The earbuds seal your ears. Therefore, be aware that there is a risk of damage 
to your ears or eardrums if strong pressure is applied to the earbuds or the 
earbuds are suddenly removed from your ears. After use, be sure to take the 
earbuds off your ears gently.
About the headphones
ÿ
ˎ Avoid playing the unit at so loud a volume that extended play might affect 
your hearing.
ÿ
ˎ At a high volume outside sounds may become inaudible. Avoid listening to 
the unit in situations where hearing must not be impaired, for example, 
while driving or cycling.
ÿ
ˎ As the headphones are of open-air design, sounds go out through the 
headphones. Remember not to disturb those close to you.
If tanning oil or sunscreen gets onto your Walkman or the Remote 
Commander, wash it off using lukewarm water. Otherwise, it may cause 
discoloration or damage such as cracks to occur.
