desired volume is reached. If you experiencing
ringing or whistling in your ears, turn the volume
down or discontinue using the Original BMW
headphones. A volume that does not damage
health varies from person to person. The choice
and use of such a volume is the decision of the
user.
Warning: Using the Original BMW headphones
at high volume can cause permanent damage

appear normal to you. Your hearing can however
still be damaged by them. If you experiencing
