Volume Level
To establish a safe listening volume, first set the volume control on your Intel® Pocket Concert™ Audio Player to the lowest level (indicated by a single bar in the volume indicator).

To avoid risk of hearing loss, use the Player at the comfortable sound level that you established in quiet surroundings at all times.
