Safety information

PROTECT YOURSELF

• Using earphones or headphones for an extended time may cause serious damage to your hearing.

If you are exposed to sound louder than 85db for an extended time, you may adversely affect your hearing. The louder the sound is, the more seriously damaged your hearing may be (an ordinary conversation is between 50 to 60 db and road noise is approximately 80 db). You are strongly advised to set the volume level to medium (the medium level is usually less than 2/3 of the maximum).

• If you feel a ringing in your ear(s), lower the volume or stop using the earphones or headphones.

• Battery shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.

PROTECT YOUR RECORDER

• Do not leave the recorder in temperatures above 35° C (95° F), such as a sauna or a parked car.
