On the headphones
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 there is lightning when you are using the player, take off the headphones 
immediately.
