Listening to the Walkman™ player or other media players at excessive volume or for a prolonged period of time can damage your hearing, even when the volume is at a moderate level. To alert you to such risks, a volume level warning appears when the volume is too high, and after the Walkman™ player is used for over 20 hours.

To turn off the volume level warning

• When appears, tap OK to dismiss the warning.

Every time you restart your phone, the media volume is automatically set to moderate level.
