Using headphones or earphones
CAUTION:
Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones
can cause hearing loss. Adjustment of the equalizer to
maximum increases the earphone and headphone output
voltage and the sound pressure level. Therefore, to protect
your hearing, adjust the equalizer to an appropriate level.
Excessive use of headphones or earphones for a long period of
time at high volume can be dangerous if the output of the
headphone or earphone connectors do not comply with
specifications of EN 50332-2. The headphone output connector of
your computer complies with EN 50332-2 Sub clause 7. This
specification limits the computer's maximum wide band true RMS
output voltage to 150 mV. To help protect against hearing loss,
ensure that the headphones or earphones you use also comply with
EN 50332-2 (Clause 7 Limits) or a wide band characteristic voltage
of 75 mV. Using headphones that do not comply with EN 50332-2
can be dangerous due to excessive sound pressure levels.
If your Lenovo computer came with headphones or earphones in
the package, as a set, the combination of the headphones or
earphones and the computer already complies with the
specifications of EN 50332-1. If different headphones or earphones
are used, ensure that they comply with EN 50332-1 (Clause 6.5
