Before you start

The Safety of Your Ears is in

Your Hands

Get the most out of your equipment by playing

it at a safe level—a level that lets the sound

come through clearly without annoying blar-

ing or distortion and, most importantly, with-

out 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 actually

be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard

against this by setting your equipment at a

safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:

! Set your volume control at a low setting.

! Slowly increase the sound until you can

hear it comfortably and clearly, without dis-

tortion.

! Once you have established a comfortable

sound level, set the dial and leave it there.

BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING

GUIDELINES:

! Do not turn up the volume so high that you

can't hear what's around you.

! Use caution or temporarily discontinue use

in potentially hazardous situations.

! Do not use headphones while operating a

motorized vehicle; the use of headphones

may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in

many areas.
