Permanent hearing loss may occur if you
use your phone and/or headset at a high
volume. Set the volume to a safe level. You
can adapt over time to a higher volume of
sound that may sound normal but can be
damaging to your hearing. If you
experience ringing in your ears or muffled
speech, stop listening and have your
hearing checked. The louder the volume,
the less time is required before your
hearing could be affected. Hearing experts
suggest that to protect your hearing:
Limit the amount of time you use your
●
phone and/or headset at high volume.
Avoid turning up the volume to block out
●
noisy surroundings.
Turn the volume down if you can't hear
●
people speaking near you.
For information about how to set a
maximum volume limit on your phone, see
the features guide for your phone.

attention.
