Know these safety symbols
This ‘bolt of lightning’ indicates uninsulated material within your unit may cause an electrical shock. For the safety of everyone in your household, please do not remove product covering. The ‘exclamation mark’ calls attention to features for which you should read the enclosed literature closely to prevent operating and maintenance problems. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, this apparatus should not be exposed to rain or moisture and objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should not be placed on this apparatus. CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, fully inser t the plug. (For regions with polarized plugs: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade to wide slot.)

Hearing safety
Listen at a moderate volume.
Using headphones at a high volume can • impair your hearing. This product can produce sounds in decibel ranges that may cause hearing loss for a normal person, even for exposure less than a minute. The higher decibel ranges are offered for those that may have already experienced some hearing loss. Sound can be deceiving. Over time your • hearing ‘comfort level’ adapts to higher volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds ‘normal’ can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. To guard against this, set your volume to a safe level before your hearing adapts and leave it there.
To establish a safe volume level:
Set your volume control at a low setting. • Slowly increase the sound until you can • hear it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.
Listen for reasonable periods of time:
Prolonged exposure to sound, even • at normally ‘safe’ levels, can also cause hearing loss. Be sure to use your equipment • reasonably and take appropriate breaks.
Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your headphones.
Listen at reasonable volumes for • reasonable periods of time. Be careful not to adjust the volume as • your hearing adapts. Do not turn up the volume so high that • you can’t hear what’s around you. You should use caution or temporarily • discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations. Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.; it may create a traffic
hazard and is illegal in many areas.
