KidJamz KJ35M
Safe Listening Headphones for Kids with Boom Microphone
Quickstart Guide
1. About Our Volume-Limiting Technology
Regular headphones and earphones can easily exceed safe listening volumes by as much as 30% when used with portable audio devices, and may cause permanent hearing damage with lengthy or repeated exposure. KidJamz headphones utilize an integrated volume limiter to maintain the sound pressure level (SPL) at 85dB* as recommended by most medical organizations, protecting young ears and helping create lifelong good listening habits.
The chart above illustrates safe listening thresholds at various decibel levels: 63dB and 74dB are quiet listening levels; 85dB is safe for up to 8 hours and is the recommended limit for all ages; 96dB is safe for no more than 30 minutes; and 107dB — the maximum volume common on MP3 players — is safe for only 1 minute.
* 85dB limit is based on an industry-standard 1mW audio output of a typical portable audio device.

KidJamz feature a concealed switch on the left ear cup that allows the volume limiter to be disabled in noisy environments.
There are two positions for the switch: volume-limited (85dB) (labelled "volume limit: 85db") and unlimited (labelled "no volume limit"). Any long and thin object, such as a toothpick, can be used to operate the switch.
Note: Using headphones at higher volume levels for extended periods of time may result in listening fatigue and hearing damage. When using the KidJamz in unlimited mode, set the volume on the connected phone, computer, or mp3 player to the minimum before connecting the headphones, then gradually raise the volume until an acceptable volume level is reached. Children should take a 10-minute break every hour of listening in unlimited mode.
3. Cable Installation and Controls
The detachable cable connects the boom microphone assembly to the headphones. Insert the cable plug into the headphone jack on the left ear cup to connect.
Controls
| Control | Function |
|---|---|
| Volume control wheel (up) | Increase volume |
| Volume control wheel (down) | Decrease volume |
| Microphone mute switch (up) | Mute microphone |
| Microphone mute switch (down) | Unmute microphone |
Note: Maximum volume is limited based on the position of the volume limiter switch. The volume control wheel on the cable remote and the volume limiter on the headphones operate independently.
4. Care Instructions
- Clean with a soft cloth, damp with diluted soap water solution if necessary. Do not use chemical cleaners.
