CONNECTING AN

For private listening, you can connect
an earphone or headphones with a

-
inch (3.5-mm) plug to the jack on
the front of the scanner. (Your local
RadioShack store carries a wide se-
lection of earphones and head-
phones). This automatically dis-
connects the internal speaker.
Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when you use an earphone
or headphones.
• Do not listen at extremely high
volume levels. Extended high-
volume listening can lead to per-
manent hearing loss.
• Set VOLUME to the lowest setting
before you begin listening. After
you begin listening, adjust
VOL-
UME to a comfortable level.
• Once you set 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.
