To protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when you use headphones.
• Set the volume to the lowest setting
before you begin listening. After you
begin listening, adjust the volume to a
comfortable 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
increase it. Over time, your ears adapt to
the volume level, so a volume level that
does not cause discomfort might still
damage your hearing.

Using Batteries
•
Use only fresh batteries of the required size
and recommended type.
•
Do not mix old and new batteries, different
types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or
rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of
different capacities.
•
If you do not plan to use the keyboard with
batteries for a week or more, remove the
batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that
can destroy electronic parts.
Using AC or DC Power
•
You must use a (Class 2 for AC)
power source that supplies 9V DC
and delivers at least 300 mA. Its
center tip must be set to positive
and its plug must fit the keyboard's DC 9V
jack. Using an adapter that does not meet
these specifications could damage the
keyboard or the adapter.
•
Always connect the adapter to the keyboard
before you plug it into the power source and
unplug the adapter from the power source
before you unplug it from the keyboard.
