Selecting

fine

audio

equipment

such

as

the

unit

you've

just

pur-

chased

is

only

the

start

of

your

musical

enjoyment.

Now

it’s

time

to

consider

how

you

can

maximize

the

fun

and

excitement

your

equip-

ment

offers.

This

manufacturer

and

the

Electronic

Industries

Associ-

ation'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:

è

Start

your

volume

contro!

at

a

low

setting.

è

Slowly

increase

the

sound

until

you

can

hear

it

comfortably

and

clearly,

and

without

distortion.

Once

you

have

established

a

comfortable

sound

level:

è

Set

the

dia!

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.
