Information to User
Alteration or modifications carried out without appropriate authorization may invalidate

For Canadian model

The Safety of Your Ears is in
Your Hands
Get the most out of your equipmentby playing it
at a safe level—a level that lets the sound come
through clearly without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting
your sensitive hearing. Sound can be deceiving.
Over time, your hearing “comfort level” adapts to
higher volumes of sound, so whatsounds “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:
! Set your volume control at a low setting.
! Slowly increase the sound until you can hear
it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.
! Once you have established a comfortable
sound level, set the dial and leave it there.
BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING GUIDELINES:
! Do not turn up the volume so high that you
can’t hear what’s around you.
! Use caution or temporarily discontinue use
in potentially hazardous situations.
! Do not use headphones while operating a
motorized vehicle; the use of headphones
may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
many areas.
