TO AVOID DAMAGING YOUR HEARING
Do not connect headphones to the PHONES jack while
wearing them. Moreover, do not disconnect headphones or

unplugging. It may cause damage to your hearing.

counterclockwise to reduce the volume.

of this unit, the volume display blinks. Lower the volume until the

A sudden loud noise heard over the speakers may damage
your hearing or the speakers. Turn the volume to a minimum
level before you begin playback of source devices. Then
gradually increase the volume as desired.
