Safety
Information for Europe:
Know these safety symbols
The ‘exclamation mark’ calls attention to
features for which you should carefully read
the supplied literature to prevent operating
and maintenance problems.
The ‘lightening bolt’ symbol indicates
uninsulated components within the product
that can cause an electric shock.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do
not expose the product to rain or moisture
and do not place any ojects filled with liquids,
such as vases, on the product.
a Read these instructions.
b Keep these instructions.
c Heed all warnings.
d Follow all instructions.
e Do not use this product near water.
f Clean only with dry cloth.
g Do not block any ventilation openings.
Install in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.

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.
Environmental notices
This product complies with the radio
interference requirements of the European
Community.
This product complies with the requirement
of the 1999/5/EC directive.
Warning
Never remove the casing of this apparatus. •
Never lubricate any part of this apparatus. •
Never place this apparatus on other electrical •
equipment.
Keep this apparatus away from direct sunlight,
•
naked flames or heat.
Never look into the laser beam inside this
•
apparatus.
Ensure that you always have easy access to the
•
power cord, plug or adaptor to disconnect this
apparatus from the power.
Where the mains plug or an appliance
•
coupler is used as the disconnect device,
the disconnect device shall remain readily
operable.
Risk of overheating! Never install this
apparatus in a confined space. Always leave
a space of at least four inches around this
apparatus for ventilation. Ensure cur tains or
other objects never cover the ventilation slots
on this apparatus.
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:
