GENERAL INFORMATION

Hearing Safety

Listen at a moderate volume:

• Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing. This

product can produce sounds in decibel ranges that may cause hearing
loss for a normal person, even for exposure less than a minute. The higher
decibel ranges are offered for those that may have already experienced some
hearing loss.

• Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes

of sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and
harmful to your hearing. To guard against this, set your volume to a safe level before your
hearing adapts and leave it there.

To establish a safe volume level:

• Set your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, with-

out distortion.

Listen for reasonable periods of time:

• Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally "safe" levels, can also cause

hearing loss.

• Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate breaks.

Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your head-
phones:

• Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.
• Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.
• Do not turn up the volume so high that you can't hear what's around you.
• You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous

situations.

• Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.;

it may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Handling discs

• Do not attach paper or tape to the disc.
• Keep the disc away from direct sunlight or heat

sources.

• Store the disc in a disc case after playback.
• To clean, wipe the disc outwards from the center

with a soft, lint-free clean cloth.

On handling the LCD screen

The LCD is manufactured using high precision technology. You may, however, see
tiny black points and/or bright points(red,blue,green) that continuously appear on
the LCD. This is a normal result of the manufacturing process and does not indi-
cate a malfunction.

Environmental information

We have reduced the packaging to its minimum and made it easy to separate
into mono materials: cardboard, PS, PE and PET.
Your set consists of material which can be recycled if disassembled by a special-
ized company. Please observe the local regulations to dispose of packaging,
exhausted batteries and old equipment.
