IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Power source—Connect the unit to a power source of the type
described in these instructions or as marked on the unit.
2. Polarization—The unit is equipped with a polarized power plug where
one blade is wider than the other. This safety feature ensures that the
plug fits into your household AC outlet only one way. If the plug
doesn’t fit one way, try reversing it. If the plug still doesn’t fit, contact
an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat
the safety purpose of the plug.
3. Power cord protection—Route the AC power supply cord so that it
will not be walked on or pinched by items placed on or against it.
Never take hold of the plug or cord with wet hands. Always grasp the
plug body firmly when connecting and disconnecting it.
4. Overloading—When connecting the AC power supply cord, be careful
not to overload the household AC outlet, extension cord, or outlet
from any other device as this can result in fire or electric shock.
5. Nonuse periods—Turn the unit off when it is not in use. Unplug the
unit from the household AC outlet if it is not to be used for a long
time. Unplug the unit during lightning storms. Leaving the unit
connected to a household AC outlet for extended periods can cause
battery fluid leakage.

Caution
∫Listening
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume. Hearing
experts advise against continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue
use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic
hazard and is illegal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in
potentially hazardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to
let you hear outside sounds, don’t turn up the volume so high that you
can’t hear what’s around you.
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.
∫Allergies
Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with the earphones or any
other parts that directly contact your skin. Continued use may cause
rashes or other allergic reactions.
