3 General information
Power Sources
This unit operates on a supplied AC adaptor, car adapter, or a rechargeable battery pack.
• Make sure that the input voltage of the AC adaptor is in line with the local voltage.
Otherwise, the AC adaptor and unit may be damaged.
• Do not touch the AC adaptor with wet hands to prevent electric shock.
• When connecting with car power (cigarette lighter) adaptor, be sure the input voltage
of the adaptor is identical with car voltage.
• Unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet or remove the battery pack when the unit is
not used for long periods of time.
• Hold the plug to disconnect the AC adaptor. Do not pull the power cord.

• Take care not to drop the unit or subject it to strong shocks, which may cause

Hearing Safety
Listen at a moderate volume.
• Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing. This product can
produce sounds in decibel ranges that may cause hearing loss for a normal
person, even for exposure less than a minute. The higher decibel ranges are
offered for those that may have already experienced some hearing loss.
• Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher
volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds “normal” can actually be
loud and harmful to your hearing. To guard against this, set your volume to a safe level
before your hearing adapts and leave it there.
To establish a safe volume level:
• Set your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without
distortion.
Listen for reasonable periods of time:
• Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally “safe” levels, can also cause hearing
loss.
• Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate breaks.
Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your headphones.
• Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.
• Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.
• Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
• You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations.
• Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding,
etc.; it may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
• Important (for models with by-packed headphones): Philips guarantees compliance
with the maximum sound power of its audio players as determined by relevant
regulatory bodies only with the original model of provided headphones. In case this
one needs replacement, we recommend that you contact your retailer to order a
model identical to that of the original provided by Philips.
