the person sitting next to you can hear what you are

ⅷ 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.
ⅷ Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume
increases, less time is required before your hearing
could be affected.
ⅷ Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely
loud noises, such as rock concerts, that might cause
temporary hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss
might cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.
ⅷ Do not listen at any volume that causes you
discomfort. If you experience ringing in your ears,
hear muffled speech, or experience any temporary
hearing difficulty after listening to your portable audio
device, discontinue use and consult your doctor.
