Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just pur-
chased is only the star[ of your musical enjoyment. Now it's time to
consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equip-
ment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Associ-
ation's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of
your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound
come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or
distortion--and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive
heedng.
We recommend you to avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
Sound san be deceiving. Over time your headng "comfort level"
adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds "normal" can
astually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE
you( hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and
clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfo_able sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent headng damage
or loss in the future. After all. we want you listening for a lifetime.
Place the speakers so that the super woofer is on the outside.
