- Always include this safety guide when passing the product on to third parties.
- Do not use an obviously defective product.
Preventing damage to health and accidents

- Do not use the product in situations that require special attention (e.g. in traffic or when performing skilled jobs).
- The product generates stronger permanent magnetic fields that could cause interference to cardiac pacemakers, implanted defibrillators (ICDs), and other implants. Always maintain a distance of at least 3.94” (10 cm) between the product component containing the magnet and the cardiac pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, or another implant.
- Do not use the product near water and do not expose it to rain or moisture to reduce the risk of fire or electric shock.

- Keep the product, accessories, and packaging parts out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidents. Swallowing and choking hazards.
- Use only power supply units provided by Sennheiser.
Preventing damage to the product and malfunctions
- Always keep the product dry and do not expose it to extreme temperatures to avoid corrosion or deformation.
- Use the product with care and store it in a clean, dust-free environment.
- Do not use the product if it is obviously defective, if it has been dropped or if liquids or objects have gotten inside the product. In this case, contact a qualified specialist workshop or your Sennheiser service partner to have the product checked.
- Switch the headphones off after use to conserve battery power. Remove the batteries if the product will not be used for extended periods of time.
- Unplug the power supply unit from the AC wall outlet
– to completely disconnect the product from the power source,
– during lightning storms, or
– when unused for long periods of time. - Ensure that the power supply unit is
– in safe operating conditions and easily accessible,
– properly plugged into the AC wall outlet,
~ operated only within the permissible temperature range,
– not exposed to direct sunlight for longer periods of time in order to prevent heat accumulation. - Do not place your headphones on a glass dummy head, chair armrest, or similar objects for long periods as this can widen the headband and reduce the contact pressure of the headphones.
