1 Important

Safety

• Never lubricate any part of this unit

• Never place this unit on other electrical

equipment.

• Never expose this device to direct sunlight,

naked flames, or heat.

• Only use attachments/accessories specified

by the manufacturer.

• Refer all servicing to qualified service

personnel. Servicing is required when the

digital radio has been damaged in any

way, such as power-supply cord or plug

is damaged, liquid has been spilled or

objects have fallen into the digital radio,

the digital radio has been exposed to rain

or moisture, does not operate normally, or

has been dropped.

• The unit shall not be exposed to dripping

or splashing.

• Do not place any sources of danger on

the unit (e.g. liquid filled objects, lighted

candles).

• Where the mains plug or an appliance

coupler is used as the disconnect device,

the disconnect device shall remain readily

operable.

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.
