Radio Shack CD-3904 Portable CD Player User Manual

Connections
Set the volume to the lowest set-
ting 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 per-
manent 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.
Traffic Safety
Do not wear an earphone or head-
phones while operating a motor vehi-
cle or riding a bicycle. This can create
a traffic hazard and could be illegal in
some areas.
Even though some earphones or
headphones let you hear some out-
side sounds when listening at normal
volume levels, they still can present a
traffic hazard.
