radio user’s guide
You can use headphones (not supplied) to listen to your radio privately. Insert the headphone’s plug into the jack on the side of your radio.
Listening Safely
Follow these guidelines when you use headphones.
• Set volume to its lowest level before listening. After you begin listening, adjust volume to a comfortable listening level.
• Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended high-volume listening can lead to permanent hearing loss.
• Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over time, your ears adapt to the volume, so a volume level that does not cause discomfort might still damage your hearing.
