Notes
Hearing Safety
Listen at a moderate volume.
Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing. This product can produce sounds in
decibel ranges that may cause hearing loss for a normal person, even for exposure less than a
minute. The higher decibel ranges are offered for those that may have already experienced some
hearing loss.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of
sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to
your hearing. To guard against this, set your volume to a safe level before your hearing adapts and
leave it there.
To establish a safe volume level:
Set your volume control at a low setting.
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.
Listen for reasonable periods of time:
Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally "safe" levels, can also cause hearing loss.
Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate breaks.
Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your headphones.
Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.
Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.
Do not turn up the volume so high that you can't hear what's around you.
•You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.; it may
create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.

General information
About Digital Audio Broadcasting
(DAB)
DAB digital radio is a new way of
broadcasting radio via a network of terrestrial
transmitters. It provides listeners with more
choice and information delivered in crystal
clear, crackle-free sound quality.
- The technology allows the receiver to lock
on to the strongest signal it can find.
- With DAB digital stations, there are no
frequencies to remember, and sets are tuned
by station name, so there is no re-tuning on
the move.
What is a multiplex?
Digital radio operation is made up of a single
block of frequencies called a multiplex. Each
multiplex works within a frequency
spectrum, such as Band III for DAB
broadcasts.
Helpful hints:
–You will receive DAB stations only within your
DAB transmission area.
DAB Broadcasters and DLS
Each DAB broadcaster (or multiplex
operator) also provides text and audio data
services. Some programmes are supported by
Dynamic Label Segments (DLS).This is data
which you can read as scrolling text on your
DAB radio display. Some stations transmit the
latest news, travel, and weather, what's on
now and next, website addresses and phone
numbers.
For more information on digital radio
coverage and services, please visit
www.drdb.org
Basic operation

3 To improve DAB/FM reception, extend and
turn the telescopic antenna. Reduce its
length if the signal is too strong.
To further improve DAB reception, you may
also perform manual tuning (See Manual
Tune)
Helpful hints:
–DAB is the default sound source, and the
clock sets automatically according to the time
information of the station.
If there is no DAB coverage currently
available, or DAB signal is too weak, in your
area, no DAB station will be found, and
information like "No stations available" will be
displayed.

Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
DRC adds or removes a degree of
compensation for the differences in the
dynamic range between radio stations. For
example, a station broadcasting popular music
may have a high level of compensation
applied since the emphasis is on a constant
high listening level, whereas a station
broadcasting classical music will have little or
no compensation as the listener requires all
of the highs and lows in the music to define
the detail.
There are three levels of compensation:
DRC 0: No compensation applied.
DRC 1: Maximum compensation applied
(This is the default.).
DRC1/2: Medium compensation applied.

Troubleshooting
If a fault occurs, first check the points listed below before taking the set for repair.
If you are unable to remedy a problem by following these hints, consult your dealer or
service centre.
WARNING
: Do not open the set as there is a risk of electric shock. Under no
circumstances should you try to repair the set yourself, as this will
invalidate the guarantee.
Hørselssikkerhet
Lytt til et moderat volum.
•bruke hodetelefoner med høyt volum kan skade hørselen. Dette produktet kan gi lyder på
desibelskalaen som kan forårsake hørselstap for en vanlig person, selv ved eksponering i mindre
enn ett minutt. Lydene høyt på desibelskalaen tilbys for de som allerede er rammet av hørselstap.
Lyd kan bedra. Over tid vil "komfortnivået" til hørselen tilpasses høyere lydvolumer. Etter mye
lytting, kan det som høres "normalt" ut faktisk være høyt og skadelig for hørselen. For å beskytte
deg mot dette setter du volumet på et trygt nivå før hørselen din tilpasser seg, og lar det står der.
Slik finner du et trygt lydvolum:
Sett volumkontrollen lavt.
Øk lyden sakte til du hører den komfortabelt og tydelig uten forvrenging.
Lytt i rimelige perioder:
Langvarig lydeksponering, selv ved vanlige "trygge" nivåer, kan også forårsake hørselstap.
Husk å bruke utstyret ditt fornuftig og ta passende pauser.
Husk å gjøre deg kjent med følgende retningslinjer når du bruker hodetelefonene
Lytt til et fornuftig lydvolum i rimelige perioder.
Husk å ikke stille volumet når hørselen din tilpasser seg.
Ikke skru volumet så høyt at du ikke hører hva som skjer rundt deg.
Du bør utvise forsiktighet eller stoppe bruken midlertidig i potensielt farlige situasjoner.
Ikke bruk hodetelefoner når du styrer et motorisert kjøretøy, sykler, skateboarder osv. Det kan
være trafikkfarlig og er ulovlig mange steder.
Høresikkerhed
Lyt ved moderat lydstyrke.
•Brug af hovedtelefoner ved høj lydstyrke kan skade hørelsen. Dette produkt kan frembringe lyd
med så høje decibelværdier, at det kan forårsage høreskader for en normalt hørende person, også
selv om det kun foregår i mindre end et minut. De høje decibelværdier er for at imødekomme de
personer, der allerede lider af nedsat hørelse.
Lyd kan snyde. Efter et stykke tid vil dine ører vænne sig til høj lyd og tilpasse sig en mere kraftig
lydstyrke. Så det, der efter længere tids lytning forekommer normalt, kan faktisk være meget højt
og skadeligt for hørelsen. Hvis du vil undgå det, kan du indstille lydstyrken til et fornuftigt niveau,
før din hørelse vænner sig til lydstyrken, og så lade være med at skrue op.
Sådan indstilles lydstyrken til et fornuftigt niveau:
Indstil lydstyrken til et lavt niveau.
Øg langsomt lydstyrken, til den når et behageligt niveau, hvor du kan høre lyden klart uden forvrængning.
Undlad at lytte i for lange perioder ad gangen:
For lang tids udsættelse for lydpåvirkning, selv ved et fornuftigt niveau, kan også forårsage
hørenedsættelse.
Sørg for at anvende udstyret på en fornuftig måde, og hold passende pauser.
Overhold følgende retningslinjer, når du anvender dine hovedtelefoner.
Lyt ved en fornuftig lydstyrke i kortere tidsrum.
Vær omhyggelig med ikke at justere på lydstyrken undervejs, da din hørelse tilpasser sig lydniveauet.
Undlad at skrue så højt op for lyden, at du ikke kan høre, hvad der foregår omkring dig.
Du bør være ekstra forsigtig eller slukke midlertidigt i potentielt farlige situationer.
Undlad at bruge hovedtelefonerne, mens du fører et motoriseret køretøj, cykler, står på
skateboard o.l., da det kan føre til farlige situationer i trafikken. Desuden er det ulovligt i mange
områder
