Listening caution

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufactuner and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound

distortion-and,

most importantly, without

affecting your sensitive hearing.

We recommend that you avoid prolonged

exposure to excessive noise.

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:

• 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:

• Leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss

the future.

After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
