DEAR CUSTOMER
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you have just purchased is only the
start of your musical enjoyment. Now it is time to consider how you can maximize the
fun and excitement your equipment offers. We 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. 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, we want you listening for a lifetime.
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.
ABOUT THIS MANUAL
This product features a number of sophisticated functions ensuring superior reception
and operation. All are designed for the easiest possible use, but many are not self-
expanatory. This operation manual is intended to help you benefit fully from their
potential and to maximize your listening enjoyment. We recommend that you familiarize
yourself with the functions and their operation by reading through the manual before
you begin using this product. It is especially important that you read and observe the
" precaution " on the next page and in other sections. In this operation manual, the
Basic Operation for each sound source is outlined at the beginning of its explanation,
covering simple operation for that source, such as merely playing music.
