USING AN EARPHONE

To enjoy your radio in privacy, use the sup-
plied earphone. Plug the 

1

/

8

-inch (3.5 mm)

earphone into the radio's 

EAR

 jack. This au-

tomatically disconnects the built-in speaker.

Listening Safely

To protect your hearing, follow these guide-
lines when you use the earphone:

• Set the volume to the lowest setting be-

fore you begin listening. After you begin
listening, adjust the volume to a comfort-
able level.

• Do not listen at extremely high volume

levels. Extended high-volume listening
can lead to permanent hearing loss.

• Once you set the volume, do not in-

crease it. Over time, your ears adapt to
the volume level, so a volume level that
does not cause discomfort might still
damage your hearing.
