sign you are listening too loud.
When your ears are exposed to high volumes (in
excess of 85dB) for over an hour, you may be permanently
damaging your hearing.

before you insert the Klipsch headphones and turn on the
device. Once you have the headphones on, gradually increase
the volume to a comfortable, moderate volume.

such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been
spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus
has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate
normally, or has been dropped

places.

WARNING:
Except in case of emergency, Klipsch recommends you do not use
these headphones or headsets (headphones plus microphone) as
aviation communication equipment as they are not engineered
for many environmental conditions common in commercial or
non-commercial aircraft (including, but not limited to: altitude,
temperature, noise conditions, unpressurized aircraft, etc.)
resulting in possible interference to critical communications.
The Occupational Safety Health Administration (OSHA) has issued
headphone usage recommendations for maximum daily exposure
and sound pressure levels (measured in decibels (dB)). A decibel is
a unit of measure of sound, and decibels increase exponentially as
sound gets louder. For example, conversational speech is typically
around 60dB, and a rock concert in
a stadium is often about 110dB.
