Adjusting The Volume; Information On Active Noise Cancellation Anc - Sennheiser PXC 550-II Instruction Manual

Adjusting the volume

WARNING
Danger of hearing damage due to high volume
levels!
Listening at high volume levels can lead to permanent
hearing defects. Toggling between the audio sources
may cause enormous volume jumps that can perma-
nently damage your hearing.
▷
Before putting the headphones on and before toggling
between audio sources, adjust the volume to a low
level.
▷
Do not continuously expose yourself to high volume
levels.
You can adjust the volume for music, voice prompts, beep sounds, and phone calls.
▷
If you are playing music or are on a call: Swipe vertically up or down on the touch pad to increase or
reduce the volume for music and phone calls.
▷
If the headphones are in idle mode, i.e. if you are not playing music or on a call: Swipe vertically up
or down on the touch pad to increase or reduce the volume for voice prompts and beep sounds.
When the minimum or maximum volume is reached, you hear the voice prompt "Volume max" or
"Volume min".
Depending on the length of the swipe motion, you adjust the volume in smaller increments (short
swipe motion) or larger increments (long swipe motion).
When switching the headphones off, very high volume levels are automatically reset to a moderate
level to protect your hearing when you switch the headphones on again.
You can also adjust the volume using the connected Bluetooth
device.

Information on active noise cancellation ANC

Due to its closed design, the headphones offer effective passive isolation from ambient noise.
In addition, the headphones have an active noise cancellation (ANC) function, which allows you to
reduce ambient noise to a minimum.
Even when ANC is activated, your headphones' sound quality is always at its best.
You can activate or deactivate ANC when the headphones and your audio source are connected
using Bluetooth, the USB cable, or the audio cable (provided that the battery is sufficiently charged).
