Setting a safe volume level
• If you continually listen to loud music, your hearing gradually adapts to it and gives you the impression that
the volume is lower.
• What seems normal to you can actually be damaging.
• To protect yourself from this, set the volume to a low level.
• Increase the volume slowly, until you can hear clearly and without problems.
• Damage to your hearing can be extensive and cannot be reversed.
• If you notice a hearing problem, please consult a doctor.
