Notes
• Recording level cannot be controlled using
the volume button.
• When using the earphones, do not set the
volume too high. Listening at very high
volume may lead to hearing loss.
• Do not place earphones near a microphone
as this may cause feedback.
• When the external speaker is connected
while recording, there is a risk that audio
feedback will occur.
