6WARNING
The Safety of Your Ears is in Your Hands
Get
the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe
level-a level that lets
the
sound come through clearly 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.
ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:
•
Set your
volume
control at a
low
setting.
•
Slowly
increase
the sound until you can hear
it
comfortably and
clearly,
without
distortion.
•
Once you have established a comfortable sound
level,
set the dial and leave
it
there.
BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES:
•
Do not
turn up
the volume so high that you can't
hear
what's around you.
•
Use caution or
temporarily
discontinue
use
in potentially
hazardous
situations.
•
Do
not use headphones
while operating a
motorized
vehicle;the use of
headphones may
create a traffic hazard and is illegal in
many
areas.
