Avoid Potential Hearing Loss
Note: Excessive sound pressure from earphones can
cause hearing loss.
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music)
is the most common cause of preventable hearing
loss. Some scientific research suggests that using
portable audio devices, such as portable music
players, at high volume settings for long durations
may lead to permanent noise-induced hearing loss.
This includes the use of headphones (including
headsets, earphones and Bluetooth® or other wireless
devices). Exposure to very loud sounds has also
been associated in some studies with tinnitus (a
ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to sound and
distorted hearing. Individual susceptibility to noise-
induced hearing loss and other potential hearing
problems varies. The amount of sound produced
by a portable audio device varies depending on
the nature of the sounds, the device, the device
setting and the headphones. You should follow some
recommendations when using any portable audio
device:
• Set the volume in a quiet environment and
select the lowest volume at which you can hear
adequately.
• When using headphones, turn the volume down if
you cannot hear the people speaking near you or
if the person sitting next to you can hear what you
are listening to.
• Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy
surroundings. If you choose to listen to your
portable device in a noisy environment, use noise-
cancelling headphones to block out background
environmental noise.
• Limit the amount of time you listen. An increase
in volume means less time is required before your
hearing could be affected.
• Avoid using headphones after exposure to
extremely loud noises, such as music concerts,
that might cause temporary hearing loss.
