be potentially dangerous to play your headsets at
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 headphones at high volume. Hearing
experts advise against continuous, loud and
extended play. If you experience a ringing in your
ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.

the people around you.
