The Safety Of Your Ears Is In Your; Hands; Establish A Safe Level; Be Sure To Observe The Following Guidelines - Pioneer SPH-DA02 Important Information For The User

Chapter
01 Precaution
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 blar-
ing or distortion and, most importantly, with-
out 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 dis-
tortion.
! 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.
