the user ’s right to operate the equipment.
Note
This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/
TV technician for help.
The Safety of Your Ears is in
Your Hands
Get the most out of your equipment by playing it
at a safe level—a level that lets the sound come
through clearly without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting
your sensitive hearing. Sound can be deceiving.
Over time, your hearing “comfort level” adapts to
higher volumes of sound, so what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your
hearing. Guard against this by setting your
equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing
adapts.
ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:
! Set your volume control at a low setting.
! Slowly increase the sound until you can hear
it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.
! Once you have established a comfortable
sound level, set the dial and leave it there.
BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING GUIDELINES:
! Do not turn up the volume so high that you
can’t hear what’s around you.
! Use caution or temporarily discontinue use
in potentially hazardous situations.
! Do not use headphones while operating a
motorized vehicle; the use of headphones
may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
many areas.
