mobile exposed to direct sunlight for a long
period of time with doors and windows
closed.
•To avoid product damage, do not expose
this product to rain, water or other liquids.
Caution when using the Included head
phones
•Do not allow children or people who are
unwell or not in full control of their faculties
to wear these headphones.
• If you feel nauseous while using the head
phones, discontinue use immediately.
Listening caution
Do not play your headphones or earphones
at a high volume. Hearing experts adwse
against continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, re
duce volume or discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized ve
hicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is il
legal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or tem
porarily discontinue use in potentially haz
ardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are
the open-air type designed to let you hear
outside sounds, don't turn up the volume so
high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your
hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher vol
umes of sound. So what sounds "normal"
can actually be loud and harmful to your
hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equip
ment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing
adapts.
To establish a safe level:
•Start your volume control at a low setting.
•Slowly increase the sound until you can
hear it comfortably and clearly, and without
distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable
sound level:
•Set the dial and leave it there.

cloth.
If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft

to clean this unit.
•Before using chemically treated cloth, read
the instmctions that came with the cloth
carefully.
For a cleaner crisper sound

quality playback.
