• You cannot upload MP3/WMA files from this units PLAYER folder
to a computer, but you can erase them.
• Do not remove the battery while recording with the IC RECORDER or
FM RADIO as all the data you were recording at the time will be lost.
• 
Using the IC RECORDER as an example, assume the number of recordings
has been made up to Voice100. If you delete Voice005 and Voice016, both
of these become blank numbers. If you then add a recording it will become
Voice005 and the next recording will become Voice016.

• Leave some slack in the cord of the earphones and the neck lanyard if you wind
them around the unit.
Do not;
• disassemble, remodel, drop, or allow the unit to get wet.
• use or store in locations directly exposed to sunlight, corrosive gases, a heat vent, or
a heating appliance.
• use or store in humid or dusty locations.
• use force to open the battery lid.
• play your headphones or earphones at a high volume. 
Batteries• Do not peel off the covering on batteries and do not use if the covering has been peeled off.• Align the poles + and - correctly when inserting batteries.
• Remove batteries if you do not intend to use the unit for a long time.
• Do not throw into fire, short-circuit, disassemble, or subject to excessive heat.
• Keep out of the reach of small children.
Accidental swallowing of batteries can result in stomach and intestinal damage.
AllergiesDiscontinue use if you experience discomfort with the earphones or any other parts that
directly contact your skin. Continued use may cause rashes or other allergic reactions.
Listening caution
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a
high volume. Hearing experts advise against
continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce
volume or discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is
illegal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially
hazardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear
outside sounds dont turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes
of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
•Start your volume control at a low setting.
•
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
•Leave it there.
Clean with a soft, dry cloth.
Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as
alcohol or benzine.
Care and use
Maintenance
Caution:
• Use only the provided shielded interface cables when connecting to computer.
• To reduce risk of radio interference caused by headphone, earphone or
microphone cable, only purchase accessories with cable length less than 3 m.
