WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF HELLO KITTY
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment.
Now it'slime to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer
and the Electronic lndusbies Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your
equipment by playing It at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and dear without annoying
blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.

a
safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
Toestablish a safe level:
• Start
your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Onceyou have established a comfortable sound lawl:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Take a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you
listening fora lifetime.
We WantYou Listening For aLifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and
enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until
it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's
Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to
excessive noise.
