USING AN EARPHONE
For private listening, plug an optional ear phone with a
1/8-inch plug into the recorder’s EAR jack. This auto-
matically disconnects the recorder’ s internal speaker.
Note: Your local RadioShack store has a wide selec-
tion of earphones.

Listening Safely

To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when
you use earphones.
• Set the volume to the lowest setting before you
begin listening. After you begin listening, adjust
the volume to a comfortable level.
• Do not listen at extremely high volume levels.
Extended high-volume listening can lead to per-
manent hearing loss.
• Once you set the volume, do not increase it.
Over time, your ears adapt to the volume level,
so a volume level that does not cause discom-
fort might still damage your hearing.
