3 General information

Power Sources

This unit operates on a supplied AC adaptor, car adapter, or a rechargeable battery pack.

• Make sure that the input voltage of the AC adaptor is in line

with the local voltage. Otherwise, the AC adaptor and unit may be damaged.

• Do not touch the AC adaptor with wet hands to prevent elec-

tric shock.

• When connecting with car power (cigarette lighter) adaptor, be

sure the input voltage of the adaptor is identical with car voltage.

• Unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet or remove the battery

pack when the unit is not used for long periods of time.

• Hold the plug to disconnect the AC adaptor. Do not pull the

power cord.

Please always use supplied AC/DC adaptor

Safety and maintenance

• Do not disassemble the unit for laser rays are dangerous to

eyes. Any service should be done by qualified service personnel.

• Unplug the AC adaptor to cut the power if liquid or objects get

inside the unit.

•Take care not to drop the unit or subject it to strong shocks,

which may cause malfunction.

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 poten-

tially hazardous situations.
