• Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with the earphones or any other parts that directly contact your skin. Continued use may cause rashes or other allergic reactions.

•

Leave some slack in the cord of the earphones and the neck lanyard if you wind them around the unit.

Do not:

• disassemble, remodel, drop, or allow the unit to get wet.

• use or store in locations directly exposed to sunlight, a heat vent, or a heating appliance.

• use or store in humid or dusty locations.

• use or store in locations exposed to corrosive gases.

• insert objects other than SD Memory Cards and rechargeable battery.

• use force to open the battery lid.

• use cracked or warped cards.

Listening caution

EST. 1924

You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations. Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear outside sounds don't turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you. 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. To 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.
