Precautions
Before you use this scanner, please read and observe
the following:
EARPHONE WARNING!
Be sure to use only the recommended optional
monaural earphone (EP009). You may also use a 32
stereo headset. Use of an incorrect earphone or stereo
headset may be potentially hazardous to your hearing.
The output of the phone jack is monaural, but you will
hear it in both headphones of a stereo headset.
Set the volume to a comfortable audio level coming
from the speaker before plugging in the monaural
earphone or a stereo headset of the proper impedance
(32 ). Otherwise you might experience some
discomfort or possible hearing damage if the volume
suddenly becomes too loud because of the Volume
Control or Squelch Control setting. This may be
particularly true of the type of earphone that is placed
in the ear canal.
