We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you have just purchased is
only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you
can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This Manu-
facturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics
Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe
level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying
blaring or distortion-and, most importantly, without 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 actu-
ally be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your
equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
- Start your volume control at a low setting.
- Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly,
and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level, set the dial and leave
it there. Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage
or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and en-
joyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until
it is too late, this Manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's
Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to
excessive noise.
