ESTABLISH A SAFE SOUND LEVEL
Over time your hearing will adapt to continuous loud sounds and will give the impression that the
volume has in fact been reduced. What seems normal to you may in fact be harmful. To guard
against this before your hearing adapts, set the volume to a low level.
Slowly increase the level until you can hear comfortably and clearly and without distortion. Damage
to your hearing is accumulative and is irreversible. Any ringing or discomfort in the ears indicates
that the volume is too loud. Once you have established a comfortable listening level, do not increase
the sound level.
