Listening Safely; Connecting A Tape Recorder - Radio Shack REALISTIC PRO-2042 Owner's Manual

Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when you use headphones.
• Set OFF/VOLUME to the lowest set¬
ting before you begin listening.
After you put on the headphones,
adjust OFF/VOLUME to a comfort¬
able level.
• Do not listen at extremely high vo¬
lume levels. Extended high-volume
listening can lead to permanent
hearing loss.
• Once you set OFF/VOLUME, do not
increase it. Over time, your ears
adapt to the volume level, so a vo¬
lume level that does not cause dis¬
comfort might still damage your
hearing.
CONNECTING A TAPE
RECORDER
You can connect an optional tape re¬
corder to your scanner to record trans¬
missions. To record from the scanner,
you need a tape recorder with a micro¬
phone jack (not supplied). Also, you
need a connecting cable with a phono
plug and a 3.5 mm (Vs-inch) plug (not
supplied).
1. Insert the connecting cable's phono
plug into the TAPE OUT jack on the
back of the scanner.
2. Connect the other end of the con¬
necting cable to your tape re¬
corder's microphone jack.
Follow the instructions provided with
your tape recorder to record transmis¬
sions while the scanner is on.
