VOLUME CONTROL
The unit has a volume control dial on the front panel
of the unit. Turning the dial toward low will result in
reduced sound output and rotating the dial toward
high will result in an increase in sound output.
CAUTION: Take care when turning the dial since the unit may
be in an inactive state when the dial is rotated. It could then
reactivate at a very high level of sound which could be painful
to your ears.
POWER SWITCH
The power switch enables the unit to operate.
Slide the switch to the ON position to start the
unit. If you turn the unit OFF, be sure to leave it off
for about 30 seconds before turning it back on to
allow the electronics to properly reset.
