Listening Cautions
This product respects the current regulations for limiting the output volume of audio devices to a safe
level. By listening to your device using headphones or ear buds at high volumes, you run the risk of
permanent damage to your ears. Reduce the volume of your device to a reasonable level to avoid
permanent hearing damage. If you hear ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or turn off your device.
This device has been tested with various types of earphones. In order to preserve your hearing, it is
advised that you use only earphones that respect the current regulations. At full power, the prolonged
use/listening can damage the ear.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations
created by obstructed hearing.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear outside sounds,
do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time, your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound.
What sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting
the volume of your device at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe volume level:
a) Start by setting the volume low.
b) Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably, clearly and without distortion. Once
you have established a comfortable sound level, leave it there; do not increase volume further.
This manual can be changed in case of upgrades or changes on your device and all information is subject to
change without prior notification.
