Radio Shack PRO-92 Connecting AN Extension Speaker, Using the Belt Clip, Traffic Safety

Page 17

Set the volume to the lowest setting before you begin listening. After you begin listening, adjust the volume to a comfortable level.

Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over time, your ears adapt to the volume level, so a vol- ume level that does not cause discomfort might still damage your hearing.

Traffic Safety

Do not wear an earphone or headphones while you drive a vehicle or ride a bicycle. This can create a traffic haz- ard and can be illegal in some areas.

Even though some earphones and headphones let you hear some outside sounds when you listen at normal levels, they still can present a traffic hazard.

CONNECTING AN EXTENSION SPEAKER

In a noisy area, an amplified speaker (not supplied), available at your local RadioShack store, might provide more comfortable listening. Plug the speaker cable’s 1/8-

inch (3.5-mm) mini-plug into your scanner’s jack.

Note: You must use an amplified speaker with this scan- ner. Non-amplified speakers do not provide sufficient volume for comfortable listening.

USING THE BELT CLIP

You can use the belt clip attached to the back of the scanner for hands-free carrying when you are on the go. Slide the belt clip over your belt or waistband.
