Listening caution
EST. 1924
Selecting fi  ne audio equipment such as the unit you’ve 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 manufacturer 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.
We recommend that you avoid prolonged exposure to 
excessive noise.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort 
level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds 
“normal” can actually 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: 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.
