When using headphones
Avoid damaging your hearing: do not play your headset at a high volume.
Hearing experts advise against continuous extended play. If you experience a
ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard
and it is illegal in many areas. You should be extremely cautious or temporarily
discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations. Even if your headphones
are of an "open air" type, do not turn up the volume so high that you cannot
hear what is going on around you.

tion.
Opening the Beatman Flash will void the warranty.
