About noise isolation earbuds
Supplied noise isolation earbuds provide a snug 
fit for effective attenuation of ambient noise.
Notes
  Prolonged use of snugly fitting earbuds may 
strain your ears. If you experience discomfort, 
discontinue use.
  The pressure-relieving urethane cushion is 
extremely soft. If it breaks or detaches from 
the earbuds, it will not take its correct 
position and the earbuds will lose their noise 
isolation function.
  The urethane cushion may deteriorate over 
time. If the pressure-relieving power is lost 
and the urethane cushion hardens, the 
earbuds may lose their noise isolation 
function.
  Do not wash the earbuds. Keep them dry, 
otherwise they may deteriorate quickly.
About hybrid silicone rubber 
earbuds
Keep earbuds clean. To clean the earbuds, wash 
them with a mild detergent solution.
Removing the headphones
After use, remove the headphones slowly.
Note
Headphones are designed to fit closely in your 
ears. If the headphones are pressed hard while in 
use or taken off too quickly, they may cause 
injury.
Wearing headphones may produce a diaphragm 
click sound. This is not a malfunction.
Precautions
High volume may affect your 
hearing. For traffic safety, do 
not use while driving or 
cycling.
Install the earbuds firmly. If an 
earbud accidentally detaches 
and is left in your ear, it may 
cause injury.
  Do not leave the stereo headphones in a 
location subject to direct sunlight, heat or 
moisture.
Note on static electricity
Static electricity accumulated in the body may 
cause mild tingling in your ears.
To minimise the effect, wear clothes made from 
natural materials.
