Caution: Avoid potential hearing loss.
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most common\
 cause of 
preventable hearing loss. Some scientific research suggests that using p\
ortable audio 
devices, such as portable music players and cellular telephones, at high\
 volume settings 
for long durations may lead to permanent noise-induced hearing loss. Thi\
s includes the 
use of headphones (including headsets, earbuds and Bluetooth
® or other wireless devices)....
