Listening
caution
Selecting
fine
audio
equipment
such
as
the
unit
you've
just
purchased
is
only
the
start
of
your
musical
enjoyment.
Now
it’s
time
to
consider
how
you
can
maximize
the
fun
and
excitement
your
equipment
offers.
This
manufacturer
and
the
Electronic
Industries
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
clear
without
annoying
blaring
or
distortion-and,
most
importantly,
without
affecting
your
sensitive
hearing.
We
recommend
you
to
avoid
prolonged
exposure
to
excessive
noise.
Sound
can
be
deceiving.
Over
time
your
hearing
“comfort
level"
adapts
to
higher
volumes
of
sound.
So
what
sounds
“normal"
can
actually
be
loud
and
harmful
to
your
hearing.
Guard
against
this
by
setting
your
equipment
at
a
safe
level
BEFORE
your
hearing
adapts.
To
establish
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.
Once
you
have
established
a
comfortable
sound
level:
•
Set
the
dial
and
leave
it
there.
Taking
a
minute
to
do
this
now
will
help
to
prevent
hearing
damage
or
loss
in
the
future.
After
all,
we
want
you
listening
for
a
lifetime.
