Guidelines for safe and efficient use

Avoid damage to your

hearing

]

Damage to your hearing can occur if you

are exposed to loud sound for long periods

of time. We therefore recommend that you

do not turn the handset on or off close to

your ear. We also recommend that music

and call volumes are set to a reasonable

level.

]

If you are listening to music whilst out and

about, please ensure that the volume is at

a reasonable level so that you are aware of

your surroundings.

This is particularly imperative when

attempting to cross the street.
