Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when y ou use earphones or
headphones.
• Set the volum e t o th e l owe st setting
before you begin listening. After you
begin listening, adjust the volume to
a comfortable level.
• Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended high-volume
listening can lead to permanent
hearing loss.
• Once you set the volume, do not
increase it. Over time, your ears
adapt to the volume level, so a v olume level that does n ot cause discomfort might still damage your
hearing.
Traffic Safety
Do not wear earphones or headph ones
while operating a motor vehicle or riding
a bicycle. Thi s can create a traff ic hazard and could be illegal in some areas.
Even though some earphones and
headphones let yo u hear some outside
sounds when listening at normal volume
levels, they still can present a traffic
hazard.

CD CARE TIPS
• Do not place anythin g but a CD in
the disc co mp ar tm en t . D oi n g s o can
damage the drive mechanism.
• During playback , a severe shock or
jolt could make the CD's rotation
speed change suddenly and produce some noise. This is not a malfunction.
• Always handle a CD by its edges
and keep it in its prote ctive case or
sleeve when it is not in use. Fing erprints and scratches on the CD's
surface can preven t the las er beam
from correctly reading the digital
information. To clean the CD, use a
CD cleaner kit.
• A scratch on the CD 's surface can
make the CD skip or sto p play in g. If
the CD gets scratched, use
RadioShack Scratch ’n Fix to repair
the scratch.
• Keep CDs dry. A water drop can act
as a lens and affect the laser beam
focus.
