k Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.  
l Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by  
the manufacturer or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used,  
use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid  
injury from tip-over.  
m Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for  
long periods of time.  
n Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is  
required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such  
as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled  
or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been  
exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has  
been dropped.  
o Battery usage CAUTION – To prevent battery leakage which may  
result in bodily injury, property damage, or damage to the unit:  
Install all batteries correctly, + and - as marked on the unit.

Warning  
Never remove the casing of this apparatus.  
Never lubricate any part of this apparatus.

Keep this apparatus away from direct sunlight, naked flames or heat.  
Ensure that you always have easy access to the power cord, plug or adaptor to

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.  
Set your volume control at a low setting.  
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and  
clearly, without distortion.  
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.  
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.
