IMPORTANT NOTES
Hearing is very important to you and to us so please take care when operating this equipment. It is
strongly recommended that you follow the listed guidelines in order to prevent possible damage or
loss of hearing.
ESTABLISH A SAFE SOUND LEVEL
Over time your heating will adapt to continuous loud sounds and will give the impression that the
volume has in fact been reduced. What seems normal to you may in fact be harmful.
To guard against this BEFORE YOUR HEARING ADAPTS set the volume at a level.
Slowly increase the level until you can hear comfortably and clearly and without distortion.
Damage to your hearing is accumulative and is irreversible.
Any ringing or discomfort in the ears indicates that the volume is too loud.
Remember listening for prolonged period of time at high volume levels will harm your hearing.
Once you have established a comfortable listening level, DO NOT INCREASE THE SOUND LEVEL
FURTHER.
The following list of typical sound levels may assist you in recognising just now loud you have set the
volume level.
