The Safety of Your Ears is in Your Hands

Get the most out of your equipment by 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 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.

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.

Condensation

Condensation may occur to the inside of the unit if it is carried from a cold area to a warm area during winter or when the room temperature rises quickly in a heated room. The unit will not move normally if it is condensed. Though it will vary on the degree of condensation, if the electricity is turned on and left for 1 – 2 hours, the temperature of the unit will be maintained at room temperature, allowing condensation to evaporate and the unit to be used normally. Even during the summer, if the air from the air conditioner flows directly to the unit, it may cause condensation. If that happens, change the location of the unit.

If problem occurs

When this product is subjected to strong external interference (mechanical shock, excessive static electricity, abnormal supply voltage due to lightning, etc.) or if it is operated incorrectly, it may malfunction.

If such a problem occurs, do the following:

1. Set the unit to the stand-by mode and turn the power on again.

2. If the unit is not restored in the previous operation, unplug and plug in the unit again, and then turn the power on.

Note

If neither operation above restores the unit, clear all the memory by resetting it. See Resetting the device on page 30.
