&WARNING
The Safety of Your Ears
is
in
Your Hands
Get the most out
of
your equipment by playing
it
at a safe level
-
a
level
that lets the sound come
through clearly without annoying blaring
or
distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your
sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over
time, your hearing
"comfort level"
adapts to higher
volumes
of
sound, so what
sounds
"normal"
can actually
be
loud
and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment
at
a safe
level BEFORE
your hearing adapts.
ESTABLISH
A
SAFE LEVEL:
· Set
your volume control at a
low
setting.
· Slowly increase the sound until you can hear
it
comfortably and clearly, without distortion.
· Once
you have established a comfortable sound
level,
set the
dial
and leave
it
there.
BE
SURE TO OBSERVE
THE
FOLLOWING GUIDELINES:
•
Do not turn up the volume so high that you can't hear what's around you.
•
Use caution or temporarily discontinue use
in
potentially
hazardous situations.
•
Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle ; the use
of
headphones may create a
traffic hazard and is illegal
in
many areas.
