LOUD MUSIC AND
HEARING
Playing loud music in an automo-
bile can hinder your ability to hear
traffic as well as permanently dam-
age your hearing. The maximum
volume levels achievable with
JBL speakers, combined with high
power amplification, may exceed
safe levels for extended listening.
We recommend using low volume
levels when driving. JBL accepts
no liability for hearing loss, bodily
injury, or property damage as a
result of use or misuse of this
product.
