Dear Customer:

Selecting fine 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.

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:

• 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.

We Want You Listening For A Lifetime

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment.

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. This list of sound levels

is included for your protection.

Decibel

Level Example

30 Quiet library, soft whispers

40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic

50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office

60 Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine

80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock at two feet
