3.4 Connecting the headphones

Headphones should have an internal resi- stance (impedance) of 32 ohm and be equipped with a 3.5mm stereo jack.

Warning: Never connect the headphones to the device when you are already wearing them. You can severely damage your ears if the volume is set at a high level.

Always ensure that the volume control is

turned to quiet - then ...

insert the connection plug into the

socket provided for the headphones.

The internal loudspeakers are disabled as soon as the headphone connection plug is placed in the socket.

When the headphone plug is removed the speakers will be reactivated - which can lead to an unexpected volume level if the volume was turned to high when using the headphones.

For this reason the volume level should be lowered before the headphone plug is

removed from the socket.
