LG Electronics VX8700 Cell Phone User Manual


 
94 VX8700
Do not turn your phone on or off when putting it
to your ear.
Use accessories, such as earphones and
headsets, with caution. Ensure that cables are
tucked away safely and do not touch the
antenna unnecessarily.
Caution! Avoid Potential Hearing Loss.
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including
music) is a common cause of preventable hearing
loss. Some scientific research suggests that using
portable audio devices, such as portable music
players and cellular telephones, at high volume
settings for long durations may lead to permanent
noise-induced hearing loss. This includes the use
of headphones (including headsets, earbuds and
Bluetooth or other wireless devices). Exposure to
very loud sound 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
sound, the device, the device settings and the
headphones. You should follow some common-
sense 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-canceling headphones to block out
background environmental noise.
Limit the amount of time you listen. As the
volume increases, less time is required before
your hearing could be affected.
