Act considerately
When the volume is too high, the sound leaks outside the
headphones. Be careful not to raise the volume so high
that it bothers people around you.
There is a tendency to raise the volume when using in
noisy places. However, for reasons of safety, it is advised
to keep the volume at a level whereby you can still hear
sounds around you.
On cleaning
Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild detergent
solution. Do not use solvents such as thinner, benzene or
