WARNING!

USING THIS SYSTEM AT EXCESSIVE VOLUMES CAN CAUSE

PERMANENT HEARING DAMAGE. USE AS LOW A VOLUME AS POSSIBLE.

In order to use this system safely, avoid prolonged listening at excessive sound pressure levels. Please use the fol­lowing guidelines established by the Occupational Safety Health Administration (OSHA) on maximum time exposure
to sound pressure levels before hearing damage occurs.

90 dB SPL at 8 hours
95 dB SPL at 4 hours
100 dB SPL at 2 hours
105 dB SPL at 1 hour
110 dB SPL at
115 dB SPL at 15 minutes

120 dB SPL — avoid or hearing damage may occur

It is difficult to measure the exact Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) present at the eardrum in live applications. In addition to
the volume setting on the PSM, the SPL in the ear is affected by ambient sound from floor wedges or other devices. The
isolation provided by the fit of quality earphones is also an important factor in determining the SPL in the ear.

1

/2 hour

Here are some general tips to follow in the use of this product to protect your ears from damage:

1. Turn up the volume control only far enough to hear properly.

2. Ringing in the ears may indicate that the gain levels are too high. Try lowering the gain levels.

3. Have your ears checked by an audiologist on a regular basis. If you experience wax buildup in your ears, stop
using the system until an audiologist has examined your ears.

4. Wipe the earphones with an antiseptic before and after use to avoid infections. Stop using the earphones if
they are causing great discomfort or infection.

This symbol indicates important operating and

maintenance instructions in the literature accompanying this unit.

tions: (1) this device does not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, in­cluding interference that may cause undesired operation.
