Safety Information
Please read this owner’s and product guide
Reading this guide will ensure proper and safe use of your Soul® headphones. Follow all operation guidelines and adhere to
all safety warnings and cautions.
Warning
Use your headphones responsibly. Exposure to excessively loud noise can cause Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL). “The
loudness of sound is measured in units called decibels. For example, the humming of a refrigerator is 40 decibels, normal
conversation is approximately 60 decibels, and city trac noise can be 85 decibels. Sources of noise that can cause NIHL
include motorcycles, recrackers, and small rearms, all emitting sounds from 120 to 150 decibels. Long or repeated exposure
to sounds at or above 85 decibels can cause hearing loss. The louder the sound, the shorter the time period before NIHL can
occur. Sounds of less than 75 decibels, even after long exposure, are unlikely to cause hearing loss.”

Before plugging your Soul® headphones into your phone or multimedia device, make sure that the volume has been set
to zero (0) and the power is o. Once you have turned on the device, increase the volume to a safe and comfortable level.
Putting on your headphones and turning on at full volume may cause damage to your hearing.
Keep headphones out of reach of small children. These headphones are not a toy and could be harmful to small children.
Below is a chart to help you better understand the causes and eects of dierent sound levels. The n oise levels are rated in
dB (decibels)
Environmental Noise Noise Level dB Possible Eects of Exposure
Quiet Library 30 dB No Eect - Normal
Normal Conversation 60 dB Comfortable Hearing
City Trac (inside car) 85 dB Maximum Level before hearing damage begins. OSHA
recommends no more than 8 hours of exposure to sound levels
of 90 dB daily.
Power Saw at 3’ 110 dB
Permanent Hearing Loss likely due to prolonged unprotected exposure.
Jet Engine at 100’ 120 to 140 dB
At 125 dB the human ear begins to experience pain that can lead to
permanent hearing loss even during short unprotected periods.

Caution
DO NOT operate any motor vehicle or heavy machinery while listening to or wearing your headphones. Doing so is not only
dangerous to you or others but illegal in many states. Listening or wearing headphones reduces your ability to hear sounds
around you such as emergency vehicle sirens or the horn from another motorist.
It is not recommended to use headphones when cycling, running or walking in heavy trac areas, where your full attention
is necessary for your safety. Always use your headphones responsibly in every situation.
