Warnings
Use of controls, adjustments or 
procedures other than those specified 
in this documentation may result in 
exposure to shock, electrical hazards 
and/or mechanical hazards.
Read and follow these instructions 
when connecting and using your

Excessive sound pressure from 
earphones and headphones can cause 
hearing loss. Adjustment of the 
equalizer to maximum increases the 
earphones and headphones output 
voltage and therefore the sound 
pressure level.
