Earphones • When a conductive apparatus, such as earphones, is used in close proximity with a CRT television or CRT monitor, the latter may emit an electrostatic discharge. The electrostatic discharge can be felt as a static shock. While this static shock is usually harmless, it is good practice to avoid close contact with CRT devices when using earphones. • Do not listen to audio on your earbuds or headphones at high volume for prolonged periods of time as hearing loss may result. For users in the United States, go to www.hei.org for more information. • Do not listen to your audio device at high volume when driving, cycling or crossing the road, especially in heavy traffic, or in any other traffic condition where such use will hinder safe travel on the roads.
