							Battery life:
[When used at 25 oC (77 oF) and on a flat and stable surface]
≥The battery life may be less depending on the operating conditions.
Note:
≥Specifications are subject to change without notice.
≥Mass and dimensions are approximate.
∫Unit≥Avoid using or placing this unit near
sources of heat. Do not leave it in an
automobile exposed to direct sunlight
for a long period of time with the doors
and windows closed.
≥To avoid product damage, do not ex-
pose this product to rain, water or
other liquids.
≥Do not keep this unit and magnetized
cards (bank cards, commuter passes,
etc.) close together.
≥The speaker does not have magnetic
shielding. Do not place it near televi-
sions, personal computers or other de-
vices easily influenced by magnetism.
∫Dry cell battery≥Align the poles (+and -) properly
when inserting the batteries.
≥Do not mix old and new batteries or
different types of batteries.
≥Do not recharge ordinary dry cell bat-
teries.
≥Remove the batteries if the unit is not
to be used for a long time.
≥Do not use the batteries if the covering
has been peeled off.
Mishandling of batteries can cause elec-
trolyte leakage which can damage items
the fluid contacts and may cause a fire.
If electrolyte leaks from the batteries,
consult your dealer. Wash thoroughly
with water if electrolyte comes in contact
with any part of your body
.
∫Listening caution
Do not play your headphones or ear-
phones at a high volume. Hearing ex-
perts 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 tem-
porarily discontinue use in potentially
hazardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones
are the open-air type designed to let you
hear outside sounds, don’t 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 “nor-
mal” can actually be loud and harmful to
your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equip-
ment at a safe level BEFORE your hear-
ing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
≥Start your volume control at a low set-
ting.
≥Slowly increase the sound until you
can hear it comfortably and clearly,
and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfort-
able sound level:
≥Set the dial and leave it there.
