English - Shure PSM 600 User Manual

USING THIS SYSTEM AT EXCESSIVE VOLUMES CAN
CAUSE PERMANENT HEARING DAMAGE.
USE AS LOW A VOLUME AS POSSIBLE.
In order to use this system safely, avoid prolonged listening at ex-
cessive sound pressure levels. Please use the following guide-
lines established by the Occupational Safety Health Administra-
tion (OSHA) on maximum time exposure to sound pressure levels
before hearing damage occurs.
120 dB SPL — avoid or damage may occur
It is difficult to measure the exact Sound Pressure Levels (SPL)
present at the eardrum. In addition to the volume setting on the
PSM, the SPL in the ear is affected by ambient sound from floor
wedges or other devices. The isolation provided by the fit of quali-
ty earphones is also an important factor in determining the SPL in
the ear.
Here are some general tips to follow in the use of this product to
protect your ears from damage:
1. Turn up the volume control only far enough to hear properly.
2. Ringing in the ears may indicate that the gain levels are too
high. Try lowering the gain levels.
3. Have your ears checked by an audiologist on a regular basis.
If you experience wax buildup in your ears, stop using the sys-
tem until an audiologist has examined your ears.
4. Wipe the ear molds with an antiseptic before and after use to
avoid infections. Stop using the ear molds if they are causing
great discomfort or infection.
