 Prevent hearing damage

Your IdeaTab has a headphone connector . Always use the headphone connector for

headphones (also called a headset) or ear phones.

CAUTION: Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss. Adjustment of the equalizer to maximum increases the earphone and headphone output voltage and the sound pressure level. Therefore, to protect your hearing, adjust the equalizer to an appropriate level.

Excessive use of headphones or earp hones for a long period of time at h igh volume can be

dangerous if the output of the headphone or earphone connectors do not comply with

specifications of EN 50332-2.

The headphone output connector of your Ide aTab complies with EN 50332-2 Sub c lause 7.

This specification limits the IdeaT ab's maximum wide band true RMS outp ut voltage to 150

mV. To help protect against hearing loss, ens ure that the headphones or earphones you us e

also comply with EN 50332-2 (Clause 7 limits) for a wide band characteris tic voltage of 75

mV. Using headphones that do not compl y with EN 50332-2 can be dangerous due to

excessive sound pressure levels.

If your IdeaTab came with headphones or earphones in the package, as a set, the

combination of the headphones or earph ones and the IdeaTab already complies with the

specifications of EN 50332-1. If diff erent headphones or earphones are used, ensure that

they comply with EN 50332-1 (Clause 6.5 Limitation Values). Using headphon es that do not

comply with EN 50332-1 can be dangerous due to excessive sound pressure levels .
