adapt over time so that high volume sounds normal, but the high 

volume may still damage your hearing.

•  Do not increase the volume to block out outside noise. 

The combination of outside noise and sound from your 

headphones can damage your hearing. Sealed or noise-

canceling headphones can reduce outside noise so that you 

don’t have to turn up the volume.

If you can’t understand someone nearby speaking normally, 

turn down the volume. Sound that drowns out normal speech 

can damage your hearing. Even with sealed or noise-canceling 

headphones, you should be able to hear nearby people speak.

The more time you spend exposed to loud sound, the more likely 

you are to damage your hearing. The louder the sound, the less 

time it takes to damage hearing.

•  Minimize your time listening to loud sound. At maximum 

volume, listening to music on the device with headphones can 

permanently damage your hearing in 15 minutes.

•  Even lower volumes can damage hearing if you are exposed 

for many hours.

•  All of the sound that you are exposed to during a day adds 

up. If you are exposed to other loud sound, it takes less 

time listening at high volumes to cause hearing damage.

•  To safely use the device with no time limit, keep the volume 

low enough that you can carry on a conversation with people 

nearby.

Stop using this device and have your hearing checked if you 

experience:

•  Any hearing loss.

•  You hear ringing in your ears.

•  Your speech sounds muffled.

•  Sound seems dull or flat.

It is a good idea to have your hearing checked regularly by an 

audiologist. For more information, see support.microsoft.com

 Warning: Be Aware of Your Surroundings

In order to reduce the potential risk of injury due to distractions 

while using this device, be careful and attentive while driving, 

riding a bicycle, or walking. Use of the device alone or with 

headphones (even if used only in one ear) while driving a vehicle 

or riding a bicycle is not recommended and is illegal in some 

areas. Check and obey the laws and regulations on the use of 

mobile devices in the areas where you drive or ride. Using a 

mobile device while driving or riding may be distracting. Give 

full attention to driving or riding and to the road. Always keep 

the volume low enough to hear people talking and sounds that 

might indicate danger, like fire alarms.

 Warning: Airbag Avoidance

For vehicles equipped with airbags, do not place the device or 

other objects on or near the airbags. If an airbag deploys, objects 

placed on or near the airbag could cause serious personal injury 

or even death.

 Warning: Photosensitive Seizures

A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure 

when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights 

or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who
