USING HEADPHONES
For private listening, you can connect
a pair of stereo headphones (not sup-
plied) with a
1
/
8
-inch plug. Your local
Radio Shack store carries a wide se-
lection of stereo headphones.
To connect the headphones, insert the
headphones’
1
/
8
-inch plug into the
PHONES
jack.
Note:
Connecting headphones auto-
matically disconnects the built-in
speaker.
Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when you use headphones.
• 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
permanent 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 headphones while oper-
ating a motor vehicle or riding a bicy-
cle. This can create a traffic hazard
and is illegal in some areas.
Even though some headphones are
designed to let you hear some outside
sounds when listening at normal vol-
ume levels, they still present a traffic
hazard.
