Hearing safety  
Danger  
To avoid hearing damage limit the time you use  
the headphones at high volume and set the  
volume to a safe level.The louder the volume  
the shorter is the safe listening time.  
One of Philips leading Business Principles  
is to take all necessary health and safety  
measures for our products, to comply with  
all applicable legal requirements and to stay  
well within the EMF standards applicable at  
the time of producing the products.  
Philips is committed to develop, produce  
and market products that cause no adverse  
health effects.  
Philips confirms that if its products are

Be sure to observe the following  
guidelines when using your headphones.  
Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable  
periods of time.  
Be careful not to adjust the volume  
continuously upwards as your hearing adapts.

can’t hear what’s around you.  
You should use caution or temporarily  
discontinue use in potentially hazardous  
situations.

Learn about FullSound  
FullSound is a smart digital sound enhancement  
algorithm, which runs on a powerful processor  
inside your Bluetooth headset.  
Your Bluetooth stereo headset can connect to  
one Bluetooth audio device (supporting the  
A2DP and AVRCP Bluetooth profile) and  
one Bluetooth communication device  
(supporting HFP or HSP Bluetooth profile) at  
the same time.  
It restores and enhances bass, treble, stereo  
effects and dynamics of compressed music  
and leads to a more natural,“real life” sound  
experience based on years of acoustic research  
and tuning.  
Therefore you can connect your Bluetooth  
stereo headset  
with a Bluetooth stereo enabled phone to  
both listen to music and lead calls, or  
with a Bluetooth phone that does not  
support Bluetooth stereo (A2DP) to lead  
calls and at the same time to a Bluetooth  
audio device (Bluetooth enabled MP3 player,  
Bluetooth audio adapter etc.) to listen to  
music. Make sure to pair the phone first  
with your Bluetooth headset, then turn both  
the phone and headset off to then pair the  
Bluetooth audio device.  
The FullSound feature decreases music playing  
time by less than 10% if activated. The feature  
is activated when you buy the product, to  
turn FullSound off or on hold  
and  
simultaneously for 4 seconds.You will hear one  
short beep after turning FullSound on, and two  
short beeps after turning FullSound off.  
11. 4 Automatic power saving  
If your headset cannot find any Bluetooth device  
to connect to in range within five minutes it will  
automatically power down to save battery life.  
With the SwitchStream feature you can listen to  
music and monitor your calls at the same time.  
Even while listening to music, you will hear a ring  
tone when receiving a call and can switch to the  
call simply by tapping the button.
