On headphones

• Preventing hearing damage: Avoid us ing
headphones at high volumes. Hearing
experts advice against continuous, loud,
and extended play. If you experience a
ringing in your ears, reduce the volume
or discontinue use.
• Showing consideration for others: Keep
the volume at a moderate level. This will
allow you to hear outside sounds and still
be considerate to the people around you.

On cleaning

• Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls
with a soft cloth slightly moistened with
a mild detergent solution. Do not use any
type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
• Wipe the LCD surface with the soft dry
cloth lightly. To prevent dirt buildup,
wipe it frequently. Do not wipe the LCD
surface with a wet cloth. If water enters,
a malfunction may result.
